The Bear w/the Purple Hands

For the record, we got an audible "no!" last night from Daniel as we were attempting to feed him some dinner. Dinner has become a battleground, often a lost cause. In contrast, I have achieved some progress on Wednesday morning, coaxing him into eating cinnamon-raisin toast (with his hands) for breakfast. "To-ho-ssssk."

On an unrelated note, although Daniel has not shown must sustained interest in any of the Baby Einstein videos, Sesame Street or anything else on the Sprout network, he quickly becomes fully engrossed when watching the bear with the purple hands in his 'Signing Smart' video. He will park himself in front of the TV when Christy puts this video in, and watch it from beginning to end.

Another note: Daniel has finally become interested in some of his toys, including his Music Table from Diane, Larry and Randy. One of his favorite activities is to get all of his singing, blinking toys fired up at once, turning the room into a cacophany of education, learning-friendly chaos.
