Grandma and Grandpa gave him his first guitar, and he's loving it. He was so tired from his jam session with Jack's Big Music Show that Vanessa begged to take five.
Zane is zippy in many ways. He's showing a bit more of a temper. We even wonder if he's teething a little bit. Vanessa took forever with her teeth, and when I think how he seems to be in more of a rush than Vanessa was at this age, I won't be surprised if Zane teethes in a zippy manner too.
He yells out what sounds like "Hey!" when he's bored or wants to be turned. It's pretty humorous and I need to capture it on video. He's not liking the bottle, refusing it the few times it's been offered. You might remember that he impressively was able to flip himself over a few times when he was much smaller. As he's grown bigger, he struggles with that, having to learn it for real this time, not doing it in the fluky manner in which he did it. So Zane spends a lot of time swimming and arching on his belly.
He's beginning to relax his hands more, and you'll see in this video how he loves to bat at things. I noticed a couple of weeks ago his exceptional interest in his carseat toy, much more interest than Vanessa ever had. He can do this for long periods of time and bickers when his hands are covered with a blanket, keeping him from being able to bat at it.
And it's been really hard to capture his long conversations, but kind of like the last video post, this video gives a slight hint to how he likes to talk.
