First uploaded video to flickr - quality seems very good.

This was Atticus with his new friends the Adams girls in Atlanta, from our visit to Beckie’s old college friends Tom and Melissa. The junior set got along famously.

Teasing Mr. Alligator from barretthall.

Doing one of his school songs for us. The monkeys got caught. Again.

Atticus goes to school from barretthall on Vimeo.

Last Friday, Atticus shared one of his favorites, “David Goes to School” by David Shannon, with Beckie’s class at the end of the school day. He knows the story pretty well, I think.

His shirt might look odd; it’s because it was Backwards Day at preschool earlier.

The cousins set some extra energy free on the Phalen house racecourse, a couple days after Christmas.

fun with forces of nature at the Phalens’ on Labor Day

Gramma hides from Atticus whilst he thinks he’s hidng from her - trickery and guile wins out again

in which Atticus both tells and hears a secret, and definitively removes any and all ants from his pants

Atty buckles down intently and carefully to the task at hand - evening, Easter, 2006.

first game of catch between grandson and grandfather

From my dad, Lionel’s, or Gramppa’s (Beckie questioned this spelling, but it seemed to me to be what we were saying), visit last weekend - on Sunday, the day we had for play, when none of us were sick :O .

Unfortunately, Atty was sick on Saturday and both Gramppa and I were under the weather on Monday (he left on Tuesday morning). We had fun, nevertheless — Atticus really enjoys having visitors on his home turf now, and quickly progressed into asking when we could wake up Gramppa (since Gramppa and all the rest of the nearby sensible people weren’t up quite as early as he was). A picture set from the visit can be found here.

at the reception: lettin’ it all hang out

In which the wedding goers are shown clearly loving rock ‘n’ roll.

And what is more rock than beating compliant audience members about the head and neck with your guitar?

Coming soon: another video, in which several revelers are mighty mighty and lettin’ it all hang out at the reception

trying out video using dailymotion

my favorite of a few new videos coming soon:

 the A-TTi-CUS chant,

in which @tty restarts the fading faithful

Jumping on the bed video, though thankfully, w/ 4 parents around, no bumping of heads.

aka, from September, when our camera w/ videos was still barely alive:

big green balloon fun

another Chomo pursuit in the backyard

  Atty giddy in the carseat on the way down

  learning about staying up in the surf

  Allie and Dave get warmed up for football season

 cousins at storytime
