New Granddaughter Roundup

by Joe Plemon on August 28, 2010

in Weekly Roundup

Yes, the title is correct.  Baby Eliza Nadine Plemon has been born since I wrote my last roundup – Sunday, August 22 to

Proud parents with Eliza

be precise.  You may already know the proud parents if you happen to remember my post “Debt Free  in One Year: a True Story” …  the one which won runner up in the FMF March Money Madness 2010.  Remember now?  Of course you do!  This is the same Jeremy and Erin from that post.  Jeremy was fortunate enough to be able to take a week off work, allowing him and Erin and Eliza to hibernate and bond this week.

You absolutely must click this link to watch the movie Jeremy put together documenting Eliza’s nine month journey.   It is slightly under four minutes and you need to be prepared: he is an artist and I promise it will blow you away.  It is made  entirely from still photos, 1,280 of them to be exact.  In his words, “9 months + 1,280 still photos + chalk + patience = a mini documentary of Erin and I having a baby. Shot with a Canon 30D and Canon 40D from January to August 2010“.

I will let these pictures (all within 24 hours of Eliza’s birth) do the rest of the talking.  I think I will go sew some buttons back on my shirt.
