I got a movie editing program for Christmas which makes me oh so excited!!! I have so many videos of Kaitlyn that I wanted to edit, but couldn't with what I had. So here is my first attempt at just playing around with it. I made the lighting a bit better, cut some of the video out, and added a snazzy (and very unoriginal) title. I was pretty proud of myself! :) I can't wait to actually know what I'm doing and make more movies!!!
And if you're wondering....this video was on May 16, 2009. It amazes me how small Kaitlyn looks to me now!!!

Yikes!
So I'm thinking that one of my New Year's resolutions should be to
update this blog more!!! Geez! Christmas is just a few days away,
which means I'm off work and getting to spend all day with K which I am
loving!!! But the Christmas shopping really stressed me out
yesterday...
Usually Kaitlyn has no problem shopping. She points to everything and yells, "Light!" (lately that has turned to "Bight" but oh well!) :P So yesterday we were at Old Navy and waiting in the checkout line. Kaitlyn was getting a bit restless, but was not crying. She was in her stroller and was getting kind of loud. She wasn't screaming out of anger or anything, but she was loud - sort of singing and sort of doing the over and over sound that she does when she is tired. So the lady behind keeps sighing a whole lot - and very loudly. I know that if I take K out she will just want me to hold her the whole time or put her down so she can explore - neither of which was a great option for me at the moment. So I just leave her in the stroller and she just keeps singing. Well then this lady says to her little boy (who mind you has to be like four), "I'm so glad I can take you shopping and you don't act like that." At this point I really almost turned around and said something, but I literally bit my tongue. But it didn't stop there. She kept saying things like, "Are you tired of shopping?" to which the little boy said no and the lady says, "Good, I'm so glad you can shop." I know what she was doing and she just kept at it. An older lady in front of me turned around and smiled at me and then talked to Kaitlyn a bit which made Kaitlyn happy so she babbled some more. Of course this made lady behind me sigh even more and I started to tear up out of frustration. But I never did turn around and say anything. As I got to the car after I had checked out I was still flustered. I was so upset that someone could be that rude to my child and me. Kaitlyn wasn't crying or screaming out - she was just making noise. It truly hurt my heart. I just hope that lady finds something that can make her heart lighter - especially at Christmas.
Anyway...I didn't want this post to be that negative....I promise the next ones will be happier! :) After all - it's Christmas time!!!
