He wants to play. He understands that he can fall on the pillow without hurting himself, but he isn't coordinated enough to do it correctly. He gets a little better every day though.

Stephen's birthday party at his Nana and Grandpa's. I cut it down to six and a half minutes, and it includes some present opening, singing happy birthday, and eating of cake.
Steve came over last night. Felt like I hadn't seen him in forever. We hung around and drank beer, he came to dinner with my family, and we rehearsed this song 5-6 times. The audio quality is not bad for a video camera.
This video is the first time Jaime tried to give Stephen Stage 3 foods. Nowadays, he primarily eats Stage 3 food (basically "real" food), but this was nearly two months ago. I am not sure why this YouTube player is defaulting to 1080p. 1080p is not practical for your average person surfing the web. I emailed the author of the Smart YouTube plugin to see how I (or maybe he) can change that.
This is Nigel. He is our Crowntail Betta. Since Aquarium photography requires a lot of luck, I just shot a video of Nigel using the built-in light on our camcorder. You can't see his colors very well, but you can see his cool tail and fins.
My brother recorded this on his point-and-shoot still camera, so the quality is not that good. Jaime is "squirting" a puff of air in Stephen's mouth and he finds it quite hilarious.
Jaime had a good idea to just let the video camera run while she fed Stephen the other night, and I could just edit it down. I took it from seven minutes in length to just under three minutes in length. It's still a bit too long. Stephen is attempting to feed himself pureed carrots with a spoon. If you get tired of watching it, skip to 2:35 when jaime grabs the camera again.
