Goat goes potty!

Posted on 
We are trying hard to get Danni interested in the "potty". One day I had her at a petting zoo. She was generally interested in the "Oink Oink" (pig) who was sleeping at the time. "Wake up Oink Oink! Wake up Oink Oink!" she said gentlely nudging the pig. She was a little afraid of the goat because of its size. Then I noticed that the goat was ah, relieving himself and thought that it would be a good to show Danni that other animals urinate too. "Look Danni, the goat's going potty" I said and she acknowledged that saying "Goat goes potty?". "Yes", I said, "the goat goes potty too". "Oh", she said, "goat goes potty".

Later that day, when returning Danni to her Mom, we were discussing what we did that day when Danni looked at her Mom, spread her legs apart, bent slightly forward and said "Mommy, goat goes potty!".

Potty Training

Posted on  August 9, 1995 Urged on by the chance to get to the "Big girl class", where Danielle's new preschool friends, Adam, Trevor, Marty, and Christine have when, Danielle has taken to potty training very quickly. It has surprized me how quickly and how completely she has become interested in the potty. She now even gets up in the middle of the night to go potty by herself! It is wonderful not having to deal with diapers any more and I can see the sense of accomplishment and the pride of big girl'ness on Danielle's face. Also, things like the bottle is old hat to her. Big girl is the label you must use for her or she gets upset.

Christmas

Posted on  December 15, 1995 Christmas 1995 was marked by me moving into a 2 bedroom apartment. As such my main focus was on setting up a bedroom for Danni. So her Christmas gift this year was a new, complete bedroom set. Obviously that would not do for a 3 year old so I had also purchased some other toys for her. I also decided to get the artificial Christmas tree this year. It really confused Danni because she was used to cutting down a Christmas tree as it was a Flood custom. I had to explain to her that we were gonna build a Christmas tree and that she could help. After some initial hesitation she got into it and help me put the tree together and decorate it. Danni came over after spending Christmas morning over Beama's and opened her presents with reverence. She really knows what presents are and how to open them now! After doing that I told her to put her toys into her room. She seems sort of fully furnished (something Daddy worked furiously on putting together the day

Church band

Posted on  May 8, 2004 Recently Danni got accepted into the church band. It's pretty cool what Christian musician's are doing now a days. For Danni's birthday this year I got her a bunch of Christian CDs because that's what she wanted. She sings them in the car with me all the time. They are pretty good. Wish I had more time to learn them so we could do them together. Gotta get her to rip them and push them out to my server. Danni also recently got her computer up and running. IM'ed with here for the first time last night. Well I've IM'ed her before but this is the first time she initiated it.
