Guitar Dancin'

Okay, so this is like my 3rd post today, but...

FINALLY - I figured a way to get a longer video uploaded and able to be shared. Now I just need to play with the editing stuff so I can edit it down so you don't have to watch a really long video, just the really cute parts! I am just so proud of myself for finally getting it up here, it seems like I have been trying forever.

Anyway, this video is of the boys dancing with their guitars, mostly Jack dancing with some singing from Quent. I just love watching Jack dance, he really gets into it and dances A LOT! There are very few times in our house when there is not music on and it is usually requested by Jack.

So, here they are - my dancin' machines! (sorry it's so dark)

Friday's Foto Finish Fiesta

I decided to participate in Candid Carrie's Friday Foto Finish Fiesta
for something fun and different today.
I saw that Debi over at Who Says 8 is Enough? was playing
and it looked too cute, so here we go!

Okay, so it is supposed to be one favorite foto,
but you can't get the full story with just one foto - you need the series!

These pictures were taken when Jack and Quent were 5 months old. They are being very entertained by their Daddy, my darling husband, Tom.
Now, Tom used to work for a YMCA Camp (in fact he was working there when we met, but that's a whole 'nother story) ,so Tom knows a lot of silly camp songs. He is singing and doing the hand gestures for a song called - I don't even know the name - but you may just recognize the words below if you were ever at camp or in scouts.

The boys LOVED this song when Daddy would sing it. It was so cute to see him singing and being so silly just to get his kids to laugh! Just one example of how he is a great Dad!
It was a big hit on our house for a long time!

Here's how it goes:

Mary had a little lamb,
Whose fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
She threw it out the window!
The window, the window!
The second-story window!
High low, low high
Throw it out the window!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Threw him out the window!
The window, the window
The second-story window!
High low, low high
Throw him out the window!

(you can add any nursery rhyme you want to it, the kids love it!)

Another cute video

...and this one has sound!
Had to wait until naptime to work on it, but here is a video of the boys singing (mostly Quent singing with Momma). This is a prime example of their personalities right now. Jack has things to do and does not want to just stand there and talk to Momma, but Quent will stand and talk as long as you like almost, as evidenced by how Jack comes and goes throughout this couple of minutes and Quent hangs right there.
It actually amazes me now that I watch that video from 2 weeks ago, that Quent is singing the ABCs so much clearer now than he did then, whew they change so fast!

** Gramma - the "diapa, diapa, diapa" song is just for you!




(This one is from the video camera, so it has the sound. Tom says that our regular camera does not record videos with sound, duh. So, maybe that why I got no sound on the other one :P
Sorry its so dark, I will have to remember to not to shoot toward the window light.)
