My new camcorder arrived yesterday and has been on the charger all night. I cannot wait to get home to start taking quality videos of Brody. I was setting it up yesterday with her on my lap, and she did not seemed to care about it. She was more interested in the box it came in...  |

Just wait till you turn it on, Brody will clam up and be still as a mouse  . I've been trying to make a video of Nikko for a year, but she has been very uncooperative. I have been able to get some decent audio recordings though. I have a little digital recorder, so she doesn't even notice that it's sitting on the table, which seems to be the key to getting her to open up. |

Brody is a natural in front of the camcorder, in fact, I think she likes the idea that I'm filming HER! She was a little unsure at first, and then I let her watch the playback on the screen. She cocked her head to the side and looked so excited. So while I was making dinner last night, I set the camcorder up on a small tripod on the island in the kitchen and let it roll for 20 minutes of non-stop Brody talking. I took two more vids after that, one of us eating dinner together. She doesn't talk during this one because the boyfriend is at the table and she refuses to talk in front of him. I will be editing the videos into smaller clips this weekend and will start to post them up on her myspace page for viewing!!! I'm so excited that she isn't camera-shy!!! |

I put her myspace link in my sig. There isn't a lot up there yet. I started it back in September, but haven't added anything new except the video of her shredding up the bone from the drumstick at Thanksgiving dinner. I am hoping to get more stuff up this weekend, and I have a week off from work before xmas, so I will have a lot of time to film, edit and post. |

Maybe Brody can get famous like Oliver ;D.

If she talked half as good as Oliver, I would be amazed. She is a good talker, but not like Oliver. She's a hoot to watch when she's playing with her toys though. She's quite viscious with anything that has a bell on/in it. ;D

I tried to add Brody as my friend, but it wouldn't let me. It said Brody only accepts people she knows. I guess now that she's becoming famous, she's forgotten all us little people  . |

I think I fixed the settings on Brody's profile for myspace. She should allow all people to be her friend now. If it doesn't work, just let me know and I'll look at it some more. I'm so new to the myspace thing...  My brother and his girlfriend are the only current friends on her page. The two of them live off of myspace, so I know that I can get him to help me with the security settings if it still doesn't work. Anyway, I unfortunately had a really nasty dizzy spell this weekend and did not get around to editing her videos to be posted. I'm looking forward to my vacation next week to be able to really spend some time with her myspace page and getting some fun videos posted. I wish I still had some sick time left cause I really don't feel like being at work.  The numbers and letters on my screen start to swim around after awhile. |
