Crawlin' Tall Revisited..

A little blast from early last year... hopefully, we'll be able to put together some more of these little videos...
[Note: the video is pretty large (about 20MB), so depending on your network connection where you are, it may take a while to load)...

New Gadgets

Because it's really all about the pictures....

a little evidence of Aidan's handiwork with the 'PhotoBooth' effects on Gramma and Grampa's new computer...


And Mama and Daddy got a new little digital camera, a Canon SD450, and Bryce was very interested to see how he looked in the viewfinder..

See me in the camera!

Gramma and Grampa got a fancy new computer this week-- an iMac with a little camera planted in it (see diagram at left).
Aidan spent a good portion of this afternoon taking pictures of himself on it and laughing endlessly while we were trying to figure out how to start a video chat with Mama who was back at our house...
Photobooth, a seemingly trivial little program that lets you use fun-house effects on the pictures while you're snapping them... well, I think we got Dad's money's worth out of it just in the couple of hours that Aidan spent howling with laughter at images of himself with an elongated head or psychedelic rainbow colors...

"Bice"

Bryce started saying his own name last week...
I ask him "Who am I?" and he gets a big grin and says, with a bounce, "Dadd-ie!"

Then I ask him, "Who are you?" and he thinks for a second... and then he says "Ice!"
That was last week.
In the time since then, he's added the 'B'.. so now he answers, with puffed out chest and a giant smile "Bice!"
