Daniel Reads and Makes Animal Sounds

During the last two weeks Daniel has started enjoying books and being read to. Before this, he would slither out of our arms and run to the nearest ball.

His favorite books have pictures of animals or babies. He loves making the animal sounds or kissing the babies. Below is a video of Daniel making his animal sounds.

Daniel Plays More Soccer

We've shown quite a few soccer videos on the blog considering Daniel is only 17 months old. He is really good though (I know I'm biased) and it is his favorite activity right now.

He dribbled the soccer ball in the backyard for about 15 minutes. Dribbling back and forth, in circles, and switching balls every so often.

Grandpa Tiger, you will be glad to see Daniel even uses his left foot a couple times in the video and he naturally dribbles away from defenders.

Daniel Learns to Love the Vaccum

Daniel used to hate the vacuum cleaner. Every time I would turn it on he would start screaming and crying. We bought him a little vacuum cleaner of his own to use for a few days and then tried using the real vacuum again.

Daniel and the vacuum are now good friends.
