Need a New Video Host

I'm not sure why, but zippyvideos.com has banned me from uploading or even accessing my account. At first I thought there was just a login error, and I wrote several times to tech support, with no response. Well, you can also do an 'anonymous' upload to their system, and I started getting a different error report, saying that "this user has been banned". Usually it takes something like pornography to get banned, and I've posted every video I ever uploaded to this blog. I think the pictures of Sam and Awyn are pretty harmless.

If anyone has a different free video hosting site, let me know. It's too bad, really, because some of the videos no longer exist anywhere else after that computer crash we had last year. I've tried watching the last video I posted on this blog, Sam dancing to Metallica, and I can't even view it, don't know if you can either. I'm guessing it's the one that got me banned, as it was the most recently uploaded and maybe it's a copyright thing? Anyway, I don't know.

You know, I originally started this blog to chronicle my pregnancy with Awyn and Sam's potty training adventures. Well, Awyn is now 15 months old, starting to string two word sentences together, running, walking backwards, stealing dinosaurs, and loving her brother and doggy. Still pretty bald though. She loves bike rides in the trailer, hates her helmet, but as it's a hat, begs for us to put it on her. Sam is mostly potty trained. He spends all day in underwear without accidents, but doesn't always want to poop in the potty, and sometimes insists on a diaper to do his business in. Actually, what he does is horde his poo until bedtime and then use up one or two of his night time diapers. After the shots he got last week he's been a little looser in the stool department and needing to poop during the day, so he's been pooping on the potty. Not sure if it's going to take for the long haul yet, and neither Eric or myself are willing to put him in underwear for a car trip.

I've been working on and off for a while, and we're trying to find time and money to do a nice short vacation. Right now I'm working on Eric's days off, so we haven't been able to go anywhere. We'd like to take the train to visit family again, but that's up in the air. Flying is cheaper than anything else right now, but we'd probably have to rent a car, and we can't afford 3 airplane ticket at the moment. So we might head up to Arkansas for a conference Eric wants to attend, visit some friends in the area and come home. It would take about a week, at the very beginning of October.
