OK, here we go!<\/p>\n

So, as I said before, the other day I took pictures of Emrick as he was waking up from a nap on the futon. He looked so cute moving through the various stages of waking up: first the frowning and the “Huh? Whaa? Where have I been?” looks on his face, and then gradually smiling and going into explorer mode.<\/p>\n

Anyway, as I was scrolling through the pictures on my camera, and going back and forth with some of them, I discovered by accident that a few of the pics looked really funny when viewed back and forth at a quick speed. That’s when I got the idea to animate several pairs of pictures. Of course, I have NO IDEA how to do that, so I asked Marcus if he knew how and of course, he did! So, finally, today I sat down and went through the pictures again, this time writing down exactly which pairs I wanted animated, and as I write this, Marcus is taking care of it.<\/p>\n

So, behold: Animated Emrick!<\/p>\n

Emrick is seven months old today (also 30 weeks and 2 days, also 212 days!)! He weighs 17 pounds and 4 ounces, and measures 25.25 inches. He is a proficient scooter and is into everything now. Time to buy some gates, I think! He smiles when I go to get him from his crib in the mornings, and he kicks and pants<\/em>, literally<\/em><\/strong>, when Marcus gets home from work and greets Emrick with a “Hey, Buddy!” His favorite activities lately are blowing spit bubbles, squealing, scooting toward and then licking<\/span> any shoes he finds on the floor, yanking earrings that dangle irresistibly from my ears, and laughing when I tell him he is “ca-ray-zay!”. In short, he’s perfect.<\/p>\n
