I can't believe Christmas is almost here! I think that one of the most important things about the holidays is capturing the memories - both with video and pictures. Especially of the children's excited faces on Christmas morning, when they see the goodies Santa brought! I love looking at videos of my children at Christmas time - it brings back such sweet memories. This is Christos's 5th Christmas, and Dimitry's 2nd Christmas... amazing!
Although Christmas is one of the best times to make sure you have a handy little camcorder ready to capture all the moments, with kids, everyday is film worthy! My boys do things that make me laugh daily. There are so many moments I wish I had captured on video! Well, now with the Flip Video Camcorder, I can do that!
I received my Flip in the mail yesterday (thanks to Mom Central Canada and The Flip!) and, wow! It's amazing! It's so light and so small - weighs less than my iphone! And it's totally cute, too. It's something I can carry in my purse all the time. And since I'm not very tech savvy, the Flip Mini HD Camcorder is perfect for me, because it's easy to use. The best part? It provides 2 hours of battery life, 60 minutes of recording time, and the video is shot in high definition! Also? All Flip Video Camcorders come with FlipShare, a software that lets users organize, edit and share their videos seamlessly. Which is great for me, because as I mentioned, I'm not very tech savvy.
I will be testing out my Flip over the holidays and posting some video on my blog, so stay tuned!
As much as this camcorder is a must-have for any mom, it is absolutely essential for new moms! Well, guess what? This is the first time I'm sharing this news with you here - my baby sister is pregnant! I think this would be a fabulous present for her, don't you think? The Flip would be great for her to capture all those wonderful moments with her new baby! Who knows, maybe I'll surprise her with one of these for Christmas, too.
Now guess what? Flip and Mom Central Canada want you to win a Flip!

Congrats on becoming an aunt soon!
I would give this Flip to my parents. My dad is right now 1 week in recovery from his surgery from Rectal Cancer, and I regret to say that their video camera broke a couple years back. With this scare, it's become essential for us to get as many family memories as possible, because we never know what tomorrow will bring.
This would be to create and capture those family memories no matter how small, so we always remember amazing times together.
Thanks for giving us the chance to enter.
i'd give one to my three-year-old to see his perspective on life!

congratulations for your sister! I would give the Flip to myself. As you said there are too many camera worthy moments and especially when you have 3 kids and #4 coming in 4 weeks. And also because it seems that I never buy anything for myself anymore!!
