2009 with Rafi

What a wonderful year! Raf will be 6 months old on the 7th... Here's a video of his first half year. It includes his first time with a rattle, his first trip to Europe (Spain), the special moment when he met his Gran and Grandpa at the airport, his first time in a pool, his first time meeting his cousins Rory and Freya and his aunt and uncle, his first time flying, his first Christmas, and so much more!!

    sophia and laura

  7. Thanks, everyone! I love it. I have to admit I've watched it a trillion times myself. He really is such a happy monkey. Makes me very sad that Im returning to work the end of this week. How can it have come to an end so soon?

  9. Love it, love it, love it! He's just charming. The giggles are by far the best part---but it's so lovely to see him grow. I think he's next 6 months should include a trip to Boston. :) Love to you all!

  13. Thanks, everyone! I love to do them. I already have the next song and occasion picked out!

    Sarah, we MUST see you very soon... Jeepers, I cant believe you've not met him!

    Lou, this is one of my favourite bands (is that an old fashioned way to refer to music!?)

  14. It's gorgeous, Alex ...very special and moving in a teary but lovely way. Music, action, giggles: all fit so well with the great choice of song. Eat your heart out Muse Media Manager Tom Kirk, there's competition out there in Maine, USA!!!
    Lots of love to you all

  15. Aha, Annie, I think you should send this to Tom and the rest of Muse and ask if they have a job for me! The downside for them is that all videos would likely feature a little baby!

    Thanks for looking! And maybe see you in NY!
    love A
