Argh Videos!

Oh why oh why can I not manage to use Blogger's new Video Post function??? I have tried videos of every size and even different types. According to Blogger, I was using file types and sizes within the limits. So I have resorted to going back to MySpace. (I wanted to move all my videos from there to here and then delete the account since I never use it).

I have two videos here- the first is of Jay giving Nils a horse ride to the German classic Hoppa Hoppa Reiter. Hear Nils say again! at the end when the rider goes plumps into the water. The second one is of the two guys playing after dinner. Whatever Jay does, Nils has to as well. I guess that was to be expected.

Jay went to a birthday party today for one of the girls from his class. Only one other child from his class was there, I was a bit surprised. He had a lot of fun- she lives near a huge stable of horses, so it was a horse themed party. They made their own horses and did obstacle races. Tomorrow is the kindergarten's mass at church to welcome the new kids. Apparently some of the kids have been practicing songs in English and German.

Jay also started a new art class this week. It meets for two hours every Tuesday and he really seems to love it. He talked nonstop about Udo, his teacher. Apparently Udo is the (earmuffs!) sh*#. His friend Katarina is in the class and Emma starts next week as well.

Here are some photos of Jay wearing an old sweatshirt of Michael's. Some day, when he is big enough to fit in this, we will look at it, sighing, wondering where the time went. Until then, we are completely boring, suburban parents. But at least we can say (to Americans) we are cosmopolitan, multi-racial, multi-lingual Europeans!
