Morgan & Erin Dahl

Spring toys video

As Molly hinted at a post or two back, Morgan got some new Spring toys. Here’s some video…

Delayed Gratification

We were riding home from work/school in the car the other day and Morgan was eating some Kix (a recent favorite). She pipes up from the backseat…

“I’m going to save these for later.”

and she puts them away.

I had no idea kids her age were even remotely capable of such a thing.

Note from Jim — I think it was even slightly more complex than that, I think she said, “I’m going to stop eating these so I have some tomorrow”.

Diapers Are Not Forever

Both the title of a book and a general truth. I would say that as of last Wednesday, we are officially done with diapers.  She is still wearing one at night (I always put it on her long after she is asleep), though I suspect we’ll be done with that soon too.

We should have some more photos soon. We took a trip to the toy store this weekend and loaded up on all sorts of outdoor gear (scooter, t-ball, hula hoops, etc.). It made for many a photo op over the weekend.

And she is getting ready to transition to the preschool room next week. This is her last full week in the Two’s room.  Which…wow.

St. Patrick’s Day

Morgan and I were talking on Thursday morning. We were doing a pretty normal day of the week routine.

Me: Morgan, do you know what day it is?

Morgan: Umm…No. What day is it?

Me: It’s Thursday. You know what? It is also St. Patrick’s Day.

Morgan (looking down at her PJs): Oh! (pause) I’m not wearing green!

Me: It’s okay. Your slippers are green and we’ll find you a green shirt to wear today.

Morgan: Oh. Okay.

A few Morgan videos

Nothing spectacular, or I would have posted it earlier, but a few videos from the last few months.

Singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star (Jan. 3)

Discovered a more efficient way to pop bubbles (Jan. 15)

Closing eyes is a new discovery? (Feb. 27)

Programming note — I’ve updated the video technology on the site to remove the dependency on Flash, so it should now work on iPads, iPhones, etc…
