Our laughing, thumbsucking, breakdancing baby!

Here are a few videos from last night and tonight, and then a bunch of pictures. This first video is the first one we've gotten of him laughing. He has a silly laugh and randomly decides what is funny, and then will laugh at nothing else. Tonight, Whitney was putting lotion on his face and saw a patch of dry skin on his knee. She asked him if he wanted some lotion on his dry spot, and this time around, Will decided, "That's pretty darn funny!"



Daddy shaved his goatee off for the first time in a loooooong time. We asked him what he thought of it:



Will has been kicking his legs around pretty well lately. Last night, he must have broken some kind of record. If you think he's kicking fast, keep watching. I'm actually surprised he didn't take off into the air:



Next, some pictures! Will can't keep things out of his mouth lately. His favorite things to eat are his fingers, then his thumb, then anything he can grab. He grabs whatever you put in front of him. He's taken the glasses off of my face and put them in his mouth on several occasions. This new habit also leads to a considerable increase in drool.

"Ahhhhhhh...."

Will adores his mobile and so do his parents, because it's the one place we can put him down and have at least some confidence that he'll be content on his own for more than 30 seconds. An added bonus is the fact that laying under his mobile sometimes makes him drop a major load.

Finally, a couple of snowy pictures for you all. This is outside of our front door:


Lake Erie looks like this right now:
