Daniel's First Snow









Daniel got out in the snow for the first time! He was fine until his mittens got full of snow and then he was not too happy! He loves looking at the snow falling on the ground.

Here are some of Daniel's favorite things at 17 months old:

Words - apple, bye, ball, car, clock, daddy, up/down (so I guess I need to work on words that start with the letter E next)

Classes at School: Gym and Art (which I think is awesome since I have no artistic ability whatsoever)

Sports: tumbling, throwing (balls as well as everything else he can get his hands on), spinning around and around, jumping (he got off the ground for the first time this week)

Songs: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Mary Had a Little Lamb

Nicknames: We now call Daniel "Happy Feet" in the morning b/c he is always tapping his feet, dancing and spinning around

TV Show: Blues Clues (yes, he likes this more than Football - at least for now)

Books: 1) Opposites and 2) Airplanes

Fruit: Bananas and Blueberries (I added this category for Michael!)

Time: whenever he can be outside OR whenever he can run around the house naked

Newest: hugs and kisses

Daniel has a strong independent streak and knows what he wants to do and when he wants to do it! Yes - it is a battle of the wills at our house. He is so much fun at this age and we cannot believe he will be 18 months old in February!

About Me

We first heard about Gladney Center for Adoption in January of 2005 when we met with Pastor Stephen and Paula. In March of 2005 we attended an orientation at Gladney in Fort Worth, Texas. We adopted Daniel on September 12, 2007! Now we are waiting for a special child to complete our family.
