She's Walking!

So last night I sent Jim out to buy a flip camera because 1) Maureen is walking--1-2 steps at a time, but walking nevertheless 2) our video camera that we bought before Gram was born is suddenly not working 3) said older camera does not function with the modern world--you have to transfer it to vhs tapes for god's sake!

Normally we would spend a bit more time studying up on our electronic purchase before we purchase...but I figured time was of the essense here. So, though she is not walking in the previous clip that Jim set up this morning, it was our first attempt to play with the new flip camera (which was ready to go right out of the box--even came with batteries!) and upload to the blog. I hope now we will be able to easily and quickly share important moments like first steps with our friends and family far and wide. Our early report on the flip? it is awesome!

Eventually we will take all the tapes we have of Gram (and early Mo) from the other camera and pay the serious $$ it will cost to transfer them to dvd or whatever format is in use so that those memories can be shared and returned to often.
