Parents Record Video Of New Baby Girl Every Single Day For A Year

AUSTIN, Texas (CBS) -- Christopher and Kristin Sheppard have successfully chronicled their daughter's first year one second at a time.

The parents began recording daily one-second clips of their baby girl, Violet, last August when she was born.

At around six minutes long the video is finally complete and features 365 days-worth of snuggling, crying, sleeping, laughing and finally walking!

The family lives in Austin, Texas but Christopher is originally from Dennis Township, N.J., and Kristin, a native of Middle Township.

And in the video around 2:19, baby Violet is seen wearing a hat with The Garden State on it.

"For the whole first year of Violet's life I captured one second a day on video. It's bittersweet seeing this project end, but I'm so pleased with the result. It's been the best year of my life," Christopher said in a Facebook post.
