Our digital camera has a “movie mode” on it, and we’re finally getting around to putting it to good use.
Here’s Anna in her first movie, cooing, giggling, and really trying to smile. The major Hollywood studios are still in a bidding war over this one, but “Anna vs. Pooh” will probably be released in widespread distribution later in the summer.
Enjoy.
Note: Grandpa Sam brought it to our attention that this movie will not play with QuickTime version 6. You must download version 7 in order to view this. QuickTime is a free download - you do not need QuickTime Pro (which is the version that costs you money).

It’s been a while since our last posting. Anna is now just over six weeks old. I think it’s safe to say it’s been both the longest and the shortest six weeks of our lives. We’ve been pretty frantic. Work is picking back up for me, and Tara’s been feeling better herself, and enjoying her time with Anna. And if April was frantic, then May will be doubly so: We’re planning on taking a trip out to Kansas, my brother and his wife will visit, I’ve a corporate retreat, I’ll be out in New York state at my buddy Sten’s wedding, and we’ll be working to finalize some child care for the wee one before Tara heads back to work part-time in June.
Anna’s doing just great. She’s healthy, happy, and almost ready to smile — something that will make her parents enormously happy (those giant cheeks have been giving her trouble, we think!). We’ve posted some new pictures in the usual spot, including dad’s new favorite.
