Not only is Aaron standing up by himself, he started walking this week! He is such a cutie and so proud of himself when he walks. Of course he should be. We are so proud of him too!
We visited my friend Di and her kids yesterday afternoon. We hadn't seen them for quite a long time and with Christmas next week we had gifts to give them too. I couldn't believe how big Andrew and Simone have gotten. Di's eldest daughter, Cassie, wasn't there. She has become a voracious reader at 14 and is working through Jane Austen's books so we gave her Sense and Sensibility for Christmas.
Simone and her mom are really into scrapbooking so we gave her Christmas themed pages and other stuff so she can put together a Christmas special to chronicle their holiday season. Di showed us what she has been doing in her scrapbook and the thought I had was that scrapbooking is pretty much analogue blogging. The formats are pretty similar actually. Her current pages are about her dad and have photos of him throughout his life. She has also been taking lessons and they do seem to make a difference to things like layout and design.
Andrew is 4 already. It really is a pity we don't see him that often. I am his godfather and it would be great to get to know him a bit better. Like most boys he is very physical and in the time we were at Di he walked in with a tennis racket and ball and the soccer ball we gave him for Christmas. He also showed me how fast he runs and put on a bit of a performance which I captured on my phone (there is no sound because it would have been Di's conversation with Gina in the background):
I was going through my home movies and also found this video from last year. It was pretty much the same type of visit and you can see Andrew opening his Christmas gift for that year.
I came across these two videos which are funny and seem to capture the dad experience:
I wanted to see what the video quality on my new phone (the Nokia N73) is like so I shot this short video and applied a negative colour tone. I think it came out pretty good actually.
The day has finally arrived and I can blurt the news to everyone! We went for our 12 week scan today and we can officially announce that we are pregnant. We have set up a blog called The Diary of Sprout where we will chronicle te life of our little Sprout and the many issues and challenges we encounter as new parents. And with that, here is Sprout:
Just making lunch before I head off to my office. I thought I'd see what the puppies do when faced with me filming them. Yup, still playing with the mobile Vox application on my phone.
I was playing around with this video that Gina shot a week or so ago. This is Stuart, our little hero and puppy who can leap tall buildings in a single bound ...
Then you will love this video:
I worked from home yesterday and although the day started off with clear blue skies, it ended with an awesome storm. I shot this video with my camera of the storm just outside our front door:
