Adam and I were talking the other night about how we don't have many videos of our kids. We are actually quite disappointed we've missed so many great opportunities to capture them with their funny sayings and personalities. Well, there's no time like the present to get started, after all they are still young. So Thursday while Megan and I played go fish or rather "gold fish" as she likes to call it, she was cracking me up by saying things like "hideous" that I pulled out my Nikon coolpix with the video option and captured the video below. I hesitate to share it because I know I think it's hilarious because she's my child, however, I do realize it may not be funny to anyone else....though by watching it you now may understand what I mean when I talk about her way. Yes, I thought the video was funny, but it was more the way she reacted to it that cracked me up.
[ps this is probably our 8th game of the morning, but our 100th game of the week.]
She loves this video. Loves it. I was working on some tags yesterday and she sat in front of the computer and replayed it over and over. She kept saying, "I want to watch my show". I think we listened to it at least 20 times while she sat there.
It was cute to see her giggling about stuff she would say and it made me happy to think she will have this memory forever. It definitely made me see we have missed out by not pulling out our video camera. I've actually wanted a flip for a while now so maybe I'll invest in one soon.
P.S. After playing 'go fish' all week I have been dying for some new card games. Please share some that would be fun to play with only 2 people. We played war, but it wasn't as fun as I remember and now I wonder if we were doing something wrong.
This is so cute. I am so spastic about videoing my kids. I either do a lot or none for like months. I love the picture of her watching it too.
A really, REALLY fun and easy game (that would be good for the whole family or just you two) is called CLR. It is a dice game and it takes like a minute to understand and the game time is pretty quick. We use the disks that come with it, sometimes pennies, sometimes little candies.
Here is a link- I know you can get it at stores too

I love it! She reminds me so much of Adley. It must be the age.
She's so funny, though I know how excruciating it can be to play a LONG game of "Goldfish".
I love the picture of her watching the video of herself.

I just got one of my girls "Slamwich" as a stocking stuffer. The cards look like a sandwich. It says ages 5 and up, but I bet Megan could play it.
My kids love Slamwich.
