Video fun

I haven’t been very good about taking videos lately. It seems like Cameron does something amazingly cute or funny and once DH or I pick up the camera she stops. Take her picture? No problem, Cameron will totally ham it up. But use the same exact device to take a video? No way. It’s like she has a sixth sense that I’ve scrolled away from picture mode to video mode.

Hi, my name is gullible, what’s yours?

For years I have battled the gullible curse. I seem to have some kind of mental block that makes me automatically believe everything people tell me. Don’t get me wrong, I love sarcasm and can usually spot it but if someone states something as fact I totally believe it.

When I was in NY recently at an off site the theme of the meeting was «flawless execution.» To prove the point one of the executives showed the clip below as an example of what we should be striving for. Watch it, it’s totally awesome.

I was so impressed by this video that I had to research it more. And of course, I was disappointed to learn that it was all fake. Microsoft had their dirty paws all over it which is probably why they tricked me. After all, I did download Windows XP and look where that got me…

So, am I alone in being completely gullible? Do you think women more than men are susceptible to being gullible?

This weekend I stole a few hours to do some shopping for Cameron. It is so much more fun to shop for her than myself! Kohl’s was having a great sale with some stuff up to 70% off for kids. I hadn’t even been planning to go into the store (isn’t that always the way?) but I had something to return and Babies ‘R Us was very lacking in fleece PJs and socks.

As of today all of Cameron’s 9 month clothing has been put away and she’s been moved into her 12 month clothes. I love it because it means all new outfits for me to enjoy. Cameron could care less, of course…the pants are still a bit long but she can still crawl around with no problem.

Yes, she really is adorable, isn’t she? No, I’m not biased! We’ve had to start putting clips in her hair to keep it out of her eyes. It usually only lasts an hour or two before falling out. But at least she doesn’t pull it out herself.
Our friends, Pat and Nikki, sent along this adorable Adidas outfit. Cameron is ready for her professional sports career to start!
As you can see, the squinty look has become a favorite of Cameron’s when the camera is whipped out. She’s quite the ham. DH and I try to present a lot of options for finger foods but Cameron always prefers her carbs. I can put a new kind of food in front of her and she will only pop it in her mouth if it is carb related. Otherwise it takes 6-7 introductions for a new food before she puts it in her mouth to try it. Then it is a 50/50 chance if Cameron will actually like it.

Despite her pickiness with finger food Cameron has always been fascinated with Charlie’s food. One day, we let her indulge herself. Watch and enjoy!
