Gabriel's First Year...in Video



I wanted to post this yesterday, but encountered some technical difficulties--as in my nice widescreen video was all scrunched up into 4:3 and we all looked too smushed to post in public. It's long, and I'm pretty I'm not able to understand how anyone wouldn't want to watch five minutes of MY child. But the embedded videos are worth sticking around for, in my personal opinion. It's hard to cram this much cuteness into a five minute video.

Thanks for watching. Thanks for the birthday wishes. Thanks for hanging around with me on this journey.

Oh, he is just gorgeous, what a wonderful video. I should not be allowed to watch this or read your last post whilst pregnant, I am far too hormonal for such baby boy cuteness, floods of tears all round!
Congratulations on your first year of mummyhood to your beautiful boy.

So he is seriously beautiful, I mean fo-reals! I know everyone thinks that their baby is super cute, but you & your italian make georgeous babies! My little man turns 1 on 6/2...I'll admit I cried thru this whole video b/c it brings all kinds of memories flooding back! How on earth does one year go so fast?! He looks wonderfully happy, and sweet- what a perfect way to remember his firsts : ) Happy bday sweet man!

Elizabeth and I watched it together and she'd like to add her comments: "can I take that out?" (Which is her wanting to remove his pacifier, she thinks that is hilarious, to steal pacifiers from babies.) "He's in his high chair!" "He has his mama!" And she laughed whenever he laughed.

Soooo cute.

I have no idea how you had time to put that together, but it is unbelievable! There will never be any doubt in this boy's mind that he's surrounded by love. How special. Thanks for sharing!
