I finished our travel video but was having some trouble uploading it. It's 15 minutes long and YouTube has a 10 minute limit. Also, the file size is too large for most of the other popular web hosting sites. After hunting around on the internet, I found a hosting site called Viddler which allows large file upload. I'm so glad I found it because the picture quality seems to be light years better than YouTube, which I find to be grainy and pixelated during video transitions.
So, when you have a spare 15 minutes take a peek at our video. It's a combination of photos and video clips taken on our trip. What I like best about how it turned out is that you can totally see Lauren's transition over the two week period as she starts to show her true personality.

Beautiful video and music. Thanks for providing the songs at the end, the only one I'd known was the Martina McBride song, whom I love. The others were perfect.

Beautiful video. We have had Mia for 3 years and I still haven't done this. I also want to do a memeory book.
What program do you use? I don't have a digital camcorder and I am having trouble finding a good, reasonably priced program to make a DVD.
Thanks

Oh Donna, I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face. It brings back such wonderful memories. Thank you so much for sharing. I have started mine(also using In My daughter's Eyes, love that song) but it is a long way from finished, having trouble with my computer. Lauren looks great. Miss you guys!!!

Absolutely lovely. And major kudos for getting this done so quickly! We have been home 9 months and all of our videos are still sitting in their little cases.
Wow, what a beautiful girl- so great to see all 3 of you so happy.

This definitely made me cry..
It is so great to have her own and I am so happy to have an addition to our family as wonderful as her.
Lots of love,
Katie
Oh and just to add..
Josh watched this from start to finish; mouth open, eyes wide.
At the end: "That was...that was sad."
Me: "No, Joshie. It was happy."
Josh: "Yeah..but it was like crying happy."
Me: "Did it make you cry, Josh?"
Josh: "Well.. Kind of."
Thought that was cute.. :)
And it's perfect proof of how much we all love her. :)
Internet is costing us a fortune here in China, but will definitely sit down with a coffee when I get home!
:) Can't wait to see it!
Great job! Brings back so many memories for me! You are a beautiful family. I was just going through some old pics and came across some from doing a page in your 100 good wishes book for Lauren.

Your love for Lauren shines! Each song was better than the last--Thank You (!!) for putting the song titles at the end!! I was trying to save the lyrics to the lullaby song in my browser search!! hehehe
