Ummmmm…..can I say everything he does? Jk…
Sort of…
One moment I think of is the first time he tried “nursing” on Daddy – the look on his face when he got a mouth full of hair was hilariously cute! lol
Eating her socks!
my four month old LOVES giving us a HUGE (and quite proud) smile after pooping in her green potty.
babbling her first “words” and looking at me as if I should understand what she’s saying.
I did not capture the first steps for any of my 3 kids.
I never got my son’s 1st steps on video.
My daughter would sing if you are happy and you know it but she couldn’t say the words plain (which was cute to me anyway) but every time I tried to even sneak it on camera she would quit and say nothing. She had a video cam radar or something.
I missed my youngest’s first steps too.
Everything JoHanna (3 months) does is cute! lol
During the day and after baths I will lay her down in her crib, She always turns her head to the right facing her lamp and yells at it! lol It’s so cute! She loves Talking to her lamp!
My daughter made a “mean face” for about two weeks. She’d scrunch up her nose, purse her lips and snort like a pig. We don’t know where she got it, but it stopped as quickly as it started.
You know when your baby is pretty little, like 8 months or so and it seems that they are talking with big words? Well, I caught my son say “Dada Glasses” as he was pulling my DHs glasses off his face! It was priceless and hilarious all at once!
You know I tweeted! http://twitter.com/royaldixie/status/13005637521
My one year old daughter tries to ride her rocking horse like an acrobat– with her feet standing on its back! We’re usually too busy scrambling to get her down instead of reaching for the camera.
The cutest thing our daughter does is blow her Daddy three kisses each night before bed. It’s sweet because she’s just learned how to do it and she gets so excited about it.

My baby is only 11 months old, but one of the cutest things she’s done that we didn’t get on video was her eating grapes for the first time. She couldn’t get them in her mouth fast enough and the whole time it sounded like she was saying “yuuuuuuuum, yuuuuuuuuum!”
Both my kids would scrunch up their faces, purse their lips and breath in and out in a furious little huff…and I didn’t get in on video with either of them! Agh!

The cutest thing that my son did was when he was first learning to talk, he said mama. I of course thought that he was saying Momma but no, he was trying to say lawn mower. It was crushing at the time but really funny now!
tweeted http://twitter.com/annedoggett/status/13014498953
it would be that my daughter would blow on her food before eating it…even cold stuff like veggies….I guess she learned it since I was always doing that for her food
When my daughter started walking then every time the show “cops” would come on then she would dance around to the theme song. This was the only time she would dance around in a circle like that. It was hilarious. We didn’t own a cam corder at the time so this was something that was unfortunately not captured.
My baby’s first laugh, well my husband caught it on video then accidentally deleted it… arghh…
The cutest thing is him putting his toes in his mouth and we never caught it on video!
I tweeted and I also follow you on twitter:

i would say first steps, i would have liked to capture that.
My baby Brock slaps his knee when he laughs. It is funny because we do not know where he picked it up. Thanks for the giveaway.
when he makes this one shy face.. so so so cute.. and never caught on tape!
There are so many random things I wish I would have caught on film, including my second daughter’s first steps and my oldest daughter’s first time riding a bike!
The cutest thing my granddaughter does is get real wide eyed and giggle while she is getting a bath
I haven’t caught my baby waving on camera yet.
My little guy giggles when we brush him up against leaves on trees or bushes, it’s so sweet and I have yet to get it on film. Good reminder.
The cutest thing is when our twins will put their arms around each other or sneak a hug or kiss! I never have my video or camera ready to catch those sweet stolen moments.
I managed to catch a little video of my 7 month old son standing up, holding on to his daddy’s guitar trying to strum the strings. It was quite a proud moment for his Dad and Grandpa when I showed them the video of the baby already following in their musical footsteps!
I think the cutest thing he does is sing songs, especially Itsy Bitsy Spider. I need to get out the camera next time.
One other moment I remember was when I went to get him up from a nap and he had undressed himself, overalls and all. It cracked me up that he just said “hi mama!” so brightly, as if nothing odd had happened.
Just today I was wishing I had my Vado handy when my 5 month old started squealing and laughing during tummy time. . .
when my four year old son wanted a sleep over with his two year old sister, and so they hunkered down on her bed and proceeded to discuss breakfast options and sing songs for the next hour instead of sleeping. it was so beautiful, funny, and adorable.
For a while, my youngest couldn’t pronounce his older brother’s name so it came out sounding adorably baby-ish. Unfortunately, I don’t think we ever managed to get it on video
Thank you for the giveaway!
The cutest thing I never caught on tape is when she sings soft lullabies to me when I am not feeling well.
I wish I had gotten his first social smile down! It’s still pretty hard to even take a picture of!
My daughter raises her eyebrows in a “hubba hubba” expression all the time, but I can’t ever get it on video!
I don’t have a baby yet, but I love to watch my friend’s kids. They don’t really have anything on video…so watching one little boy giggle and play peek a boo is the greatest !!
My baby/kid sings songs in his own special made-up language, but as soon as I pull out the camera to capture it, he runs toward me saying “Baby! Baby! Baby!” because he knows that there’s a cute baby who lives inside there.

When Darah was a newborn, she would make the most insane noises during her sleep in the middle of the night. Try to imagine what a cow in labor who also suffers from emphysema might sound like…that’s pretty much the noise she would make!
We have yet to catch this on camera—my 16-month old just learned what it means to smile. So when you say “smile!”, he scrunches up his nose and squints his eyes and sports a HUGE smile! So cute…….we better pull out that camera!!!!

My 7 month old daughter can now say Dada. I try to get her to say Mama.
I say, “Mama Mama”
She reponds smiling, “Dada Dada Dada Dada Dada” This goes on over and over again.
My 4 month old son smiled so big his little eyes were sealed shut and he showed off his two bottom little teeth. All because we kept asking him to smile in Korean
our 18 mo old, hazel looves getting down on all fours and head butts and wrestles with our dog, 19 lb Bruno. He loves it just as much as her!
I love it when my 16-month old gives the dog a treat, but I am never fast enough with the camera to capture it. He’s just so cute when he’s giving away cookies, especially the ones he sneaks to the dog! Maybe one day I’ll be quick enough *SIGH* Thanks for the giveaway!
When my baby guy was 9 months he would make “movie star” eyes and blink really slowly when you asked for a kiss. I have no idea where he got it from but it was sooo CUTE.
