Flipping out! (a new music video!)
Little Elvis has been close to doing a flip for several weeks now. He would get so close, and then fall over.
This weekend, we had friends over for a cookout. Little Elvis had to show off by grabbing the hot sauce out of the refrigerator door (the lemon seems to have lost it's cool for the moment) and... turning a flip all by himself!
He shocked himself with this feat and surprised me. Our guests were impressed with his talent as well, but poor Bob was in the kitchen and missed it.
On Sunday, Little Elvis only wanted to perform flips on our bed. This meant that I couldn't use the camera, because he was all over the place. We were able to get one partial shot once Bob got home from work.
But he went to town on Monday evening. We got footage of several real flips and some near misses.
Obviously, this deserves a music video! It's a song I've been planning to use for weeks. Hope you enjoy it!!
I will disclose here that I was a huge fan of Boy George when I was little. So much so, that I dressed like him for Halloween when I was in the third grade! My mom put my long brown hair in several braids, made a witch hat look like the bowler hat he wore, put one of her black blazers on me, and tied the microphone from our stereo to my belt loop! How cool is my mom?

That is really cool! Where did he learn that?
Awesome! Too cute! M still will not even try to do a flip like that. Maybe a little gymnast to be?
Lisa -- he's been putting his head on the ground for a while. We've been helping him finish the flip. I guess we kind of taught him by doing that.
I can see gold in his future! Love it! Way to go you tumbling little man!
He is just the cutest!
And I will admit (but only briefly) that I too like Boy George. I saved my allowance to buy his record...only to have my father return it to the store!
That is so CUTE!!! He looks like he is having a great time.
Does the cat do tricks too? :)
OMG...the boy George fact has me rolling over here....just like lil Elvis! :)
How cute - I'm much impressed! Esme loves somersaults, too, but she needs help to get over. I love the clapping!
It is simply amazing how much our boys stay consistantly the same - well, mostly anyway. When Zachary started doing somersaults, we all just sort of looked at each other like "ummm we're screwed now" LOL He & Little Elvis would get along so well! They'd just be rolling all over the place LOL
