How to roll over July 14, 2008

Here is Amy’s demonstration of how to do a roll over. She loves to do this when asked, especially if she can get lots of petting for it.

Step 1: Sit in a comfortable position and then down

Step 2: Lie down really fast without the head on the ground

Step 3: Lift the legs up in the air and turn to the other side

Step 4: Get back to position as started with,  in step 1

Step 5: Make sure the parents see this and you get a lot of attention   Amy usually tries to do a turn around to get into the comfortable position for a roll over, when she is standing, with her shoulders going on the ground first.

Here is a real short clip of one of Amy’s latest tricks… catching a treat (Charlie Bear) by tossing it from her nose. Works only if she was still enough to balance it first and we are working on concentration skills!

New Trick January 22, 2008

Amy has now learnt yet another new trick!!! She can now scratch her nose on command. It took all of 15 minutes for her to learn it. I used a sticky tape on her nose, the first few tries and then even if I acted like I was gonna put the tape on her nose, she was doing this. We are so proud of our baby girl. Take a look at this 5 second video.
