Dan Reed "The Dictator"

I know this is a blog about my family and raising babies, but I wanted to share a video with you that I came across that has really had a profound effect on me. I'll let the video speak for itself, but I urge you to listen to the lyrics of the song and the words of Charlie Chaplin that were taken (with permission) from his movie "The Great Dictator" - released in 1940...Sleepless City Productions did a great job with the video. Let me know what you think!

Beautiful Smile

My daughter is simply beautiful! I know and you now know it...She is the happiest baby! When she awakes, she pops open one eye then the other and kind of squints as she looks around for someone to receive her smile! When she smiles really hard, she pokes her little tongue out. I have to get some video of that so you can see it.

My Son at One Month Old

Here's a picture of my son that was taken on July 4th. He was one month and two days old at the time it was taken. He's grown a lot in a month! We went up to Hershey, PA for our annual trip to Hershey Park. No, the babies didn't go to the park! Thanks to my coworker Celeste for the "Mommy Loves Me" outfit!
