We have our very own ‘singing frog’ situation here with our little boy. It appears that when we are face-to-face with him now, he’ll just smile, and laugh, and coo to us, thinking we’re the greatest things he’s ever seen. I can’t even voice to you how thrilling that is: what a beautiful sight it is to see your child smile at you, how ‘worth it’ all the rest of life seems because this little one is thrilled to know you’re there for him.

We’ve wanted to capture this on video, not only to keep for posterity, but also to share with the friends and family (particularly his grandparents, who are currently traveling overseas). Plus he’s just so adorable!!!

The only trouble is, the little guy didn’t want to cooperate. We’d get him smilin’ like a cheshire cat (minus the teeth), warm up the camera, and this is all you’d see:

I got to thinking that we had our own cute little version of the Looney Tunes dancing frog.

Then, last night, we tried for a while and got a glimmer of hope:

Then, this morning–a smile!!

…and then spit-up. Oh well, at least everyone can see him smiling now (and what freaks he has for parents).
