Two Videos...
After Alyse took her first steps independently on December 13, a few days after her 10-month birthday, we've scarcely had the opportunity to catch her in the act, so fascinated is she with the video camera. Here she is on Christmas Eve eve showing off just a little bit
Alyse plays with a learning toy given to her by her Uncle Charles and Aunt Rachel the night before. At 10 1/2 months old, she displays the depth of her operational cognitive abilities.

Dancing Queen!
Alyse throws down some jive moves to the mono-melodic strains of "Old MacDonald" emitting from her bouncer.
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

It's Official...Moreso...
I suppose every pregnancy seems a little unreal until you get to see that first sonogram, which we did on Wednesday. Shortly before the scheduled sonogram, we had to make an unscheduled appointment with Alyse's pediatrician because Alyse has been very sick for several days (later revealed to be an ear infection). Her emergency appointment (3rd floor of the Diagnostic Clinic) was scheduled for 2:00, and the sonogram (1st floor of the Diagnostic Clinic) was scheduled for 2:30. Needless to say, at 2:29 we were still waiting to see Dr. Hudson. Kindly, his nurses had us go to the sonogram and fit us back in after we were finished. Alyse, being the thoughtful child she is, waited until after we were out of the ultrasound room before vomiting in my jacket.

Keep On Crawlin' In the Free World...
It was on this day—Tuesday, July 25, 2006—Alyse decided to slip the surly bonds of immobility and crawl. Though an otherwise floundering and awkward thing, her first crawl was a truly beautiful moment.
In other Alyse-related news, two little teeth have surfaced on her bottom gum.

Alyse & Mr. Chicken
Here's a brief clip of what was a much longer episode involving many more barnyard animal noises. The chicken was, by far, her favorite. I don't know where the "Dallas" theme song came from--oh well.

Alyse's First Real Meal
Here is Alyse's very first introduction to "real" food (a bit of rice cereal mixed in with breast milk), but her first time to consume food in a non-sucking type manner--well, with eating untensils, anyway.
The occasion was to celebrate Father's Day and Amy's birthday. (Shot June 18, 2006)

Alyse Yacking It Up!
Here Alyse begins a strange new way of talking we had not previously observed. Hard to explain, really.
Shot June 3, 2006—four days shy of her four-month birthday.

Alyse Gets Her Roll On!
Here is Alyse performing her newly achieved milestone for the third or fourth time, June 6, 2006--one day shy of her 4-month birthday.
I don't know if most parents get to see their child's very first roll-over, but we didn't. I was at work when Charlotte called and she left Alyse on her back when she, Charlotte, had to go switch laundry. When Charlotte came back, Alyse was on her tummy!

Alyse Laughs!
This is a video we shot shortly after we had heard Alyse laugh for the very first time. These aren't as discernible as the first laughs, but they're cute none the less.
Pardon my use and bastardization of Entrance of the Gladiators.
