Skypeman

While we soooo love our time and adventure in Germany, we do miss our friends and family the most. Thank goodness for Skype melting away the miles. It's so fun to watch William perk up when he hears Skype launch and dial, he knows someone special is going to pop up before his eyes!

He even does special tricks for our Skypees. He'll run through his treasure chest of amusements such as shake, roll over, bark, play dead. Okay, I'm kidding, kind of . . . He'll run through his amusements such as clapping, pointing to face parts, dancing, freaking out, blowing kisses, etc. He'll also deem it the right time to show off new tricks even his parents have never seen like . . . WALKING!! Really, William, really? How long he'd been able to do this we'll never know. He still pretends he doesn't like to walk, but turn on Skype, and presto! He's like Forest Gump . . . He'll just keep walking and walking and walking! Show off.

Speaking of special tricks, there's one we have yet to figure out. During Skype sessions William loves to slam his hands on the keyboard. Sometimes he does this before we can get to him, so the screen disappears, etc. The above picture was snapped the other day while Skyping with my parents. Did you know you could take a photo of your Skypees? Jeff and I didn't and we still have no clue how William did it. Maybe someday he'll teach us . . .
