silly baby irwin

hi everyone , been a little bit since i posted anything about irwin or cooper , been a wild month for sure but looking for a great start to 09. any way have been noticing for awhile that irwin is quite an arm waver , thought about renaming him/her mr or mrs roboto. but last night was the total surprise , first time i had seen this and wish i had grabbed the camera and gotten it . picture baby dragon , cute loveable and sweet in 20 gallon tank , yep got moved up for Christmas , basking log , little baby dragon balancing on tail , tummy against log and then both arms start going . looked like irwin was swimming or something , it was just so cute . oh so mad at not getting to the camera in time . if it happens again i am going to try and be ready for it .

Awww!
I feel your pain about not getting to a camera quick enough.
I keep trying to catch Ruben whilst he's scurrying around to show the forums how he gets around when he's completely missing an arm and a leg on one side but im always a second too late and he stops moving!
Bah.
We'll get them one day!

oh yes we will i'm sure . but as sure as we try you know they will stop doing what ever cuteness they are up to just to say ha-ha fooled you again :lol:

I got a great visual of Irwin swimming. :lol: :lol: :lol:
They are really no different than children. The minute you want them to perform....they prove you stupid once more. :roll:

oh yes how true that is and so typical of my zoo , as soon as one of them do something i have to grab the camera for they stop , so guess irwin figures it is only the right thing to do too , but one day wait and see . :lol:

Baby Irwin is quite the little clown, huh?

Did he look something like this? :mrgreen:

oh my goodness , that is to priceless , no actually he /she was more i guess using the basking log to rest the tummy against and sitting up more and then next thing you know both arms are going , guess thinking back maybe swimming should have been replaced with surfing??? :lol: haven't caught irwin at it yet though but the little stinker wouldn't go to bed last night for nothing , New Yeasrs eve yeah right on time slept through , last night nope finally fell asleepin the corner and the good mommy put irwin to bed , woke up long enough to snuggle in to my hand before i put him/her in the blankie .
