Wow! It’s been 15 Years!
It’s amazing to watch early video of your child after fifteen years of life. Although Dallen has grown considerably, he has not changed in disposition or personality. My psychiatrist brother once told me that we would never have major disciplinary problems with Dallen due to his natural disposition as a baby and young child. So far, it has held true.
Dallen’s first babysitter used to constantly tell us that we didn’t know how lucky we were to have Dallen as our first child. He was such a joy, all the time. He was very pleasant, very adaptable, very social. And he was doted upon, by everyone–especially Mom and Dad.
When Dallen was born Brad and I did not have a video camera (I know, “Gasp!”). So my brother, Barry, and his wife, Lisa, gave us a VHS tape and let us borrow their video camera every few months to record Dallen’s growth, until we finally got one of our own in late 1994. Hence, Barry and Lisa are in a lot of the video because we were using their camera.
Awesome achievement, Dallen! 15-years is the first step into a long, winding life!
Kudos for all the compiled video, Brad and Amy! Memories are fleeting, but are often caught in the net of permanence when properly undertaken. Without you determination, we couldn’t have remembered Dallen’s perfect-little-baby-face as we saw it then. I also wouldn’t have lost a tear or two while watching.
Thanks for making my night!

You still have that adorable smile Dallen!
heres how ya describe him now A TEENAGER (who can be mean), But oh well Happy Birthday Dallen!
What a sweet little baby boy…so fun to watch…priceless treasures.
Dallen is so beautiful. I forgot how all of the grandkids grew up. It was so sweet to see the little cousins interact with each other. Thank you Amy for helping me to remember the 90’s.
I’ve tried to post a message…help me…Rod Serling…I feel like I am in in a 50’s movie…I am trying to make communicatation in the 2000’s…
Thank the Lord for babies. I remember when we watched the kids for the weekend at your house and Dallen woke me up at 6:30 a.m. and said, “Dad, I wet the bed”, and I said, “Dallen, I’m not your dad”. I changed his sheets and pajamas expecting him to go back to sleep but instead he made me go downstairs and play. Not having kids at the time I was not pleased in the least bit, but he was the same sweet kid that he is now.
Amy, watching this video again, you have not aged in 15 years…you look as young and vital as you did in 1993.
Oh my goodness I was a spazz back then! I look at those and think to myself that I was so crazy…I have never seen a kid at the age I was walk and crawl around and go crazy like that. Thanks Mom and Dad for making that movie, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
OK so I watched the tape again. I forgot how sweet the voices were of Ed and Parry. I felt so stressed then, what was I worried about? I had 2 beautiful children and the sibs were interacting with their beautiful children. We were all trying to make a moment. I wish I could go back in time and kiss, kiss, kiss, my sweet babies!…That is all. I really need more videos Amy to weep over. Kisses. S-
