It’s sunny today.

D2 already posted about Gina’s 4th of July Weenie Roast, complete with video. But you can never have too many videos of happy children playing in the fleeting Oregon sort-of sunshine, right?

It’s also my first chance to post video shot with my new video camera - a Flip Mino. So far I really like it. It’s small. It’s simple to use. And it takes pretty darn good video.

See for yourself… and enjoy!

The answer to the question is, in their own words: “playing computer.” The Cupcakes like to drag their little step stools over to the window ledge, kneel on the top step and pretend to type on the window sill, while announcing “I play com-pooter, Mama!!!!” Wonder where they learned that…?

It seems the the Cupcake’s infatuation with opera is waning a bit. I may have overdosed them; I’m not sure. (It’s not entirely my fault. If you bring a 3-year-old into a library and she asks the reference librarian for ‘op-a-wa moobies’ you will come home with a lot of DVDs.)

At any rate, a capella music is all the rage right now, at least in H2’s world. And once again it’s YouTube to the rescue. We spent a good 25 minutes after nap (yeah!!! nap!!!!!!) this afternoon surfing for collegiate a capella videos. There were some really good ones. And some less good ones. And one that I think DH will enjoy.

Honey, this one’s for you:

The Cupcakes have a new favorite game. I took a picture of them playing it this morning. Can you guess what they’re “doing”?
