This week we purchased a video camera.  Yup our very own video camera.  If you want details about it you’ll have to talk to Damion.  All I know is that it is a Canon HF11 with HD capabilities.  Once Damion figures the editing software and teaches me how to upload videos we’ll share our kids’ cuteness & funniness with you!

Yesterday we took the camera to the park and shot some footage while the kids played but unfortunately our time there was shortened by Jack pushing Anna into a slide which resulted in blood from her bottom lip getting on her, Damion and the slide.  For the record we are not sure if the push was intentional or not but at bed time Anna accepted the not present apology from Jack.  This morning the lip was a bit swollen but seems like it will heal okay.  

The one thing that came to light while watching the video from yesterday is that Jack squeals a lot!  I know he makes noises (boy he likes making random noises) but the amount of squealing surprised me.  Guess I’ve learned to ignore it.  Yesterday afternoon I mowed the backyard while the kids played.  Jack took Anna’s stroller, with Baby in it still, from her and proceeded to mimic me.  He went back and forth in the yard and when I stopped he stopped and when I shut off the mower a couple of times he too stopped and came closer to us and ran back to the stroller when I started the mower.  Today he once again stole the stroller, with Baby in it again, and pushed it around the yard.  Any guesses as to who is getting his own outside push toy this weekend?

Tonight per Anna’s request, she and Damion will be camping out in the backyard.  We even got her a youth sleeping bag.  She is excited.  She didn’t understand why she could nap in the backyard.  After our walk to Starbucks (fewer calories if you walk to get it :) ) we put the kids down for a short nap.  Damion took that time to lay out the tent so Anna can help put it up later.  He said while doing that he looked up and saw Anna in her window looking out at him.  They said hi to each other, he told her she should be napping and she walked away.  Too bad she’s not excited, eh?

Oh, and let me not forget a public thank you to Adam!  He saw my previous post asking for somebody to watch Anna & Jack so I could go scrapbook supply shopping.  He proposed a night out for all of us.  Adam & Damion took the kids to Gander Mountain & Guitar Center while I spent an hour and a half at Scrapadoodle.  I got a bunch more stuff bought for next weekend.  So, THANK YOU ADAM!!!
