Merry Christmas to All!

He's too cute--Uncle David Supplied the wheels. You can't see it, but the shirt I'm holding up says "I'm gonna sheep your ...." If you have any idea what that means, or can even complete the sentence, you're as big a dork as me. :)

The many doings of the day

Poor little Uly--His face is extra puffy due to the second installment of nasty head cold.

Uly and Daddy

Uly and Gavin playing with the recording feature on my camera...

Moo

Some of you have concluded--correctly--from Uly's pictures that he is a very sweet little boy. He usually goes about his business with actions full of thought and purpose--though occasionally he gets a wild hare--and he definitely did not inherit his mother's knack for rapid and loud conversation. Mostly he jabbers quietly when he plays, but this morning he sat with a little truck that carries a toy horse and cow. Talking is not "his thing" at the moment (he can say "more", "meeeeee-ick" (milk), "mama" and "Da-da" but only when motivated by stress or great desire) and so I was utterly delighted to see him pick up the cow and say "moo". It was very quiet but distinct. Then he picked up the horse and said it again. Then he said it in front of Gavin which made my day. It's always good to have a witness!

Very first YouTube Post

OK--sorry about the lame slow-down on updates but holidays do tend to take their toll...

Thanksgiving pictures will begin to trickle in soon. I'm relying on dear friends to supply them since my camera and batteries were never in the same place at the same time this year. Bad Mommy.

But here is some video to make you feel better!

I'm pretty excited. The quality is bad, I'm terribly annoying (gotta learn to shut my trap when filming), but hey! I've got video! Finally, FINALLY figured out how to get it copied from my camera to DVD. FINALLY.

Finally.

*sigh*

Had a great thanksgiving, by the way. Little Uly got to meet his kind-of-cousin Patrick for the first time and they had a good time. Patrick is 4 months older and Uly had a lot to learn from him. I'll update more later when I've got more time. Spend all of Uly's nap fussing with video!

A year and a half!

Yesterday as Uly's 1.5 year birthday!
