As a first born there were lots of pictures of me, but not so many of my younger sister (she still complains to this day!). When my second child was born, I tried very hard to find time to take pictures and videos not wanting him to one day complain like my sister. I thought of a great idea and wanted to share it.
My son was born on September 26, so for the next 11 months on the 26th, I would turn the video camera on, point it at him and narrate for a minute or two what he was up to that month. ie. This month you rolled over, now you are crawling and eating cheerios etc. I never rewound that tape and after 1 year, I had a continous reel (almost 1 hour in length) of what he looked like and did in his first year of life.
He's already 8 years old and boy did the time go fast. We love watching this tape and remembering how tiny he once was.

this is genius! I'm already in month 11--but inspired to employ your great system, now!
