Vloggin' Vednesday

Filed Under: Family

This is my first week joining up with Vloggin’ Vednesday. I am so excited to participating this week. I shot this with my D7000. I could not figure out how to get it to focus on me since I had to push the button before sitting down. It is focused on the chair. Anyone know how to fix that? Let me know. Thanks!

This may or may not have taken 10 times to shoot. First Dustyn was outside and banging on the door. Then he messed with the tripod. Then Carsyn woke up. Then he kept spitting up. It was a long process and took forever to upload on youtube. I had to let it go overnight. I have to find a way to compress the video.

Click the button below to join in, link up and check out some other vlogs..

Here is a video of Dustyn I found when I was uploaded my vlog. He was almost a year old. He has always loved riding. Love his little wave.

    Aw, I love your voice. Mine's baaaaad. A little too southern, in my opinion. Anyway, I love the fact that you are so calm and collected...and to the point. Mine go on for days. Ha! I still think it's nerves. Carsyn is a doll baby. You did great!

    I'm so glad no one could see how much my pits were sweating during my first taping. Thank God that doesn't happen when typing my posts. :) You did a great job, and I'm thinking of you. :) Also, I love how Dustyn called out for your during your video. Too cute!

    I seriously look forward to seeing everyone's Vlogs! Maybe someday I will participate. If I could figure it all out myself! I think your first Vlog was great! Your house looks awesoma, your boy is darling and your voice sounded just fine to me! :)

    Good job! I can't tell at all that you are nervous. You are so brave. The thought of vlogging scares the crap out of me! I sound like the biggest hillbilly hick on video.

    oh my goodness the train video is so cute and his little wave;0. Looks a lot like carsyn to me! Your first vlog was great! I don't know how to work the focus mechanism either. You'll have to let us all know when you figure it out;0.

    I love this vlogging stuff! I'd do it, but I'd have to put makeup on and I'm just not feelin' that right now. ;) Good seeing you!

    I think you did a great job with your first vlog. I got a prop to sit in for me as a focal point before I jumped into the frame. You just have to find something that would be about the same height - use manual focus and then take down your prop before you hit record...at least that's how I did it. Great job!

    March 16, 2011 at 8:26 am

    These vlogs are all so cute (AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR VOICE! (Now I am questioning whether or not you said you didnt like your voice)). Anyway, glad to hear ya! I'd do it but I'd be the grandmother of the group. Time to grow up Sheri...sigh.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.
