Year Two (Pt 2)

Here’s the second part of the Year 2 picture video. Most of these pics were taken between June and December, 2008. You can view the first part here. Particular pics that stand out:

  • Lucy’s “field trips” w/ her mom, Auntie Laura, and Gma Susan
  • Lucy goofing around with Wubert
  • Lucy (finally) having enough hair for pigtails (like Mei from My Neighbor Totoro)
  • Lucy playing w/ Auntie Laura’s cats
  • Playing at the park
  • Lucy’s ongoing fascination w/ guitars (maybe when she’s big enough she’ll want a tele, a pink paisley would be cool)
  • Halloween Fun

For music, I went with an East Coast theme:

Year Two (pt 1)

Last year I posted a couple of videos based on pics taken from the first twelve months of Lucy’s life. The videos were called “Year One (pts 1 and 2)”, and yes, the title was lifted from the Batman comic. Now that Lucy has completed her Year 2, here’s a video based on pics taken from January – June of 2008. I’ll post a second video for July – December, 2008 soon.

Year One (pt 1)

I’m going through our old pics with the idea of making video collages for each year. I’m starting with 2007, our first year with the kid. This is the first of a two part ‘Year One’ vid. Going through these pics brings back  a bunch of memories. A few:
