When Annabel was born a year ago, she was 3 weeks early, and her delivery took much less time than we expected. So we were pretty rattled by the haste of her arrival.
Thus our excuse for forgetting we had the Flip with us at the hospital. None of the adults (Amanda, Jon, me) thought to video the new baby.
Otto, though, remembered. And he decided to take matters into his own hands and record something of that day. I'm so glad he did! In the video I still have the hep lock line in, so it was maybe an hour or so after Bel was born. Amanda and Jon are talking in the background. I'm holding Annabel on my lap and watching Otto walk around the room. At the end I think I lowered the bed so he could sit by me. I'm impressed now by how calm and happy and quiet we all were!
Here's his movie.
