First Snow and Gummy Bear

Yesterday, we had our first sizable amount of snowfall in a long time, so Alexandra got to experience the fluffy white stuff. Now she loves pointing out the window and saying, "snow." (You can hear her say it in this video at about 0:28, though it sounds a lot more like "no.")



One of the things that makes Alex happiest in life is listening to the Gummy Bear Song. For a time, I didn't let her listen to it because she'd throw tantrums if she didn't get to listen to it continuously. Then a few days ago, I decided to reintroduce Mr. Bear because she loves it so much and to train her to be OK with only watching it once...Many tantrums later, the Gummy Bear is once again banished from our home. Here is one of the last times Alex got to watch it. Rest in peace, Gummy Bear.

I am wondering what she did after the video stopped,in the snow.

You know, kids are like that.
Reptition is the thing at this age. I cannot tell you how many times the same book was read every night. NV

Well, we just watched Allie watching the Gummie Bear song about 8 times. Each time after it was over, Mclane would say "gain" and I'd play it again. I tried to show him the actual video thinking he might like that, but he just kept saying, "Baby! Baby!" and wanting to watch Allie again. I can now hear him from the kitchen sitting in his high chair saying, "Baby! Baby!"
