Hi, everyone. Sorry it’s been so long since we posted. This is Shona (even though the post says Marcus !). But we’re making up for it by posting a VIDEO today. Hooray! For those of you who have trouble watching the videos, we’ll post normal pics tomorrow — I promise!<\/p>\n
About this video: Sometimes Marcus and I whistle to entertain Pookie, and apparently, he has begun to catch on. The other day I noticed that he was making a whistling sound. But I couldn’t see his face at the time because I was sitting behind him while he tried to climb the built-ins in the playroom. I wanted to be able to catch him if he fell backwards. Anyway, to be honest, it did not even occur to me that he could be making that sound with his mouth. I just assumed, in fact, that it was coming through his nose…. I figured that his nasal passages must be… ahem… heavily obstructed. And since later that day I spied and removed quite a bit of “material” from there, I was sure again that that was the cause of the whistling sound. But I was wrong! Later that night Marcus noticed the whistling, too, only he was looking right at Pookie’s face, and could see that Emrick’s little mouth was curled into a little “o” and our Pookie was whistling! For real! Then today Marcus did a great job of catching it on video:<\/p>\n
