Kale vs. Bacon

First of all, the other day Danny learned how to say an enthusiastic "yes!" while nodding his head.  It was the cutest and I was super happy that he hadn't learned to say "no" to everything yet.  Until today.  It was "no" to everything.  The good news is that he doesn't want a million dollars, he doesn't like ice cream, and he doesn't want to go to the park.

Anyway, back to the point of this post.  Tonight Danny had cheese, bacon, sweet potatoes, zucchini, and kale on his plate.  He sat there and ate zucchini and kale and asked for more.  To silence any naysayers, I took a video for proof!  In this video you'll notice he does pick up a piece of cheese but ends up putting it down hah.  Who is this kid!?

And yes, Tom did get in trouble for trying to discourage veggie eating!

A Real Page Turner

 The same thing happens to me when I'm reading a good book...

Danny had to go to a rehearsal with me today but got to model the derby hats they were using for the jazz dance!

Puzzles

Literally just a video of Daniel doing a puzzle.  If that sounds boring to you (and I don't blame you), go ahead and skip right over this post.

We've been working on having Danny stand still/quietly when the chicks approach him.  They'll come up really close to him when he's gentle/quiet.  They're just as interested in him as he is in them.

Curls!

Ignoring the piece of dirt in his hair, how stinkin' cute are these curls?  They come out more at the end of the day when it's humid/he's sweaty, but I don't care.  

And like his mother, the front/top of his hair appears to be stick straight while the back is full of curls.

Arrrrgh!

Did ye know it's Talk Like a Pirrrrrate Day?

No daycare again today, but Danny and I went to school this morning to look at some of the pirate costumes.  Someone gave us this awesome bandana to wear.

Escalators!

Yesterday we rode escalators!  Apparently if you're one and a half, that's really stinkin' exciting!

Also, we saw water fountains!

We also went for a walk in Wailea.  Danny walked A LOT and by the end he was struggling to keep up.  Then all the sudden he was just shuffling his feet.  Then he stopped and asked to be picked up.  He walked a lot yesterday though, I was surprised he lasted as long as he did.

This morning our daycare provider is sick, so Danny and I are home this morning.  Naturally he decided it made sense to sit in the driveway and read a book..

It's a rainy, chilly one this morning.  So we cuddled up on the couch to read some books.  That's what I call a Monday morning.

Now time for more coffee..

More Ducks

Is it even the weekend if you don't go visit the ducks?
