Townhome Playground

Despite far too many toys, two precautionary gates and three adult friends, Lilly always wants to play on the steps. We've gotten her blocked well enough to keep her on the bottom two, but she will climb up and down those a hundred times! This sequence of videos is meant to show you multiple things about LG.

This first one shows you what a show-off she is! If no one was paying any attention to her at this very moment, she would be up and down the stairs, up and down the stairs. Once she realized, however, that she had an audience, a video-taping audience, well she just had to put her best little performance foot forward! Make sure the volume is up on this one! See how she turns around to make sure everyone is watching her? This is why she's not yet walking...she stands up and balances with ease, but then topples over when she turns her head quickly to make sure that she has an audience to clap for her!



The second and third video show the the reason that we videoed in the first place. Once you get past the inevitable fact that there's always something on my dirty floor that she picks up and eats, and the stacks of crap that represent my (ironic) attempt at organizing, you learn several things about LG.

Watch how amazingly thoughtful she is when coming back down the stairs (the first time and second time!) I even think she's saying "down." Listen.... The next thing is shows is a confirmation of the first - she's a ham - and when she stops paying such thoughtful consideration of what she's doing, and plays "look how cute I am," she forgets what to do! This is a longer video, so I had to youtube it...



Is that expression at the end priceless, or what? Finally, can you believe how tenacious she is? No tears! No fears! She starts all over again! And gets it right! Boy, do we need a yard or what?
