Riley Matthew, age 2 |
Last year for his first birthday I made this video:
I love this video, I ordered the DVD of it and love to watch it from time to time because he has been SUCH a joy!! Riley turning two is so bittersweet...I love watching him grow and learn but I also just want to keep him little, sweet, and innocent. It's a scary world out there!
So I definitely want to make a video for him every year. Right now I'm having to go through all my pictures from the last year (there are A LOT) and organize them into months and then organize them onto the video. I already have a couple of songs picked out but I will have to narrow down the pictures to fit the two songs. I want it to be awesome so I just keep going over it and over it (read about my perfectionist tendencies here). I think this year my goal will be to keep them organized by month through out the year so I don't have to do so much work just to get started on the video. So for now Carmen will have to collect a little dust and understand that my boy is only little once and I'm sure once he is grown she and I will have LOTS of time together...I'm sure she understands!!! :)
When my son was this age it was all I could do to get photos in a baby album, or should I say growing young child album. I think you deserve to take all the time you need, to make a DVD and to just enjoy him.
