View all of Sophie’s videos in one convenient place! I have added a Sophie video player to the blog where you can view all of the videos we have posted without the need to wade through YouTube.
Also, here’s a new Sophie movie montage thanks to my new computer and it’s fancy new version of iMovie. This was so much simpler to make than my old software, it was ridiculous. Enjoy!
In other thoughts, I have been working to become more creative. Having a job doing creative work is very taxing and easily sucks away all of my creative juices. Taking the time to recharge is a must and I’m taking my time management a lot more seriously because of it. As many of you know, I have started a webcomic called “Bots” that I update weekly. www.tarobot.com/botsThis takes up a tremendous amount of energy but I don’t think I’ve enjoyed something this much since college. In order to keep myself going, I’ve had to make some resolutions about how I spend my time. So far, I only have 2 big time-sucks but I’m sure many more are lurking. Just thought I’d share:
I will no longer join Facebook apps that are not real games.
I don’t care how you spend your time online but I have wasted far too much of my own clicking boxes surrounded by advertising in order to make a number change. “Congratulations! You are now a level 2.“
I believe slot machines to be the lowest form of “entertainment” mankind has ever created. They require no skill, discourage interaction with other humans and turn people into greedy zombies pulling levers to see more sparkly things. I am finding the vast majority of Facebook apps are pretty much empty slot machines with ads all over them. I’m sure your favorite app isn’t like this but the ones I’m deleting are.
Once the Olympics are concluded, I will not make time to watch TV.
Having to repeatedly watch the same 20 ads during the Olympics made me realize how little I’ve been missing on TV. I also realized that I want to see Alltel’s wizard use a +5 Magic Fire spell on that “Chad” guy so I never have to see him again.
I love good TV and I wish I had more time to enjoy the shows my friends tell me about but there just isn’t time. I’m not boycotting TV, just refusing to spend time on it when I can be creating things or spending time with actual people who care about me.
Wow, what a cutie! Her expectant looks and big smiles are endearing, growing stronger as she reaches out to both of you for closeness and hugs. And she has the ability to free-stand, which will lead to that first step soon! Thanks for making these great videos so that we can see, too. Looking forward to sharing more love and hugs together. : )
These are great! She looks like her Dad when she stops to roll over and suck her thumb.
I’ll tell you that girl is so cute!! This is great! I get to see my grand daughter grow up and I am five thousand miles away. Thankyou! Thankyou!
Love, love, love the video. And I understand about the apps and the tv.
Gosh, I can’t believe how BIG she’s gotten! And Kelly looks great! But I think my favorite part is the goofy parent commentary. LOL! We sure have tons of video like that!
