100 Animals

I randomly pulled out our video camera the other day and found a bunch of videos Daddy made while I've been away at work.  This is the first of a few videos I am planning on posting.   

To anyone who has read this blog before, it is no surprise that Buddy loves animals.  (Which by the way, I am sooo thankful for... The neighbor boys are all into Star Wars and I am so not looking forward to that stage.  I'll take animals, trains and dinosaurs any day.) 

Anyway, Buddy has a few animal books that he reads multiple times per day.  Currently, it is a Noah's Ark book he found by himself at the library.  But, this 100 Animals book is one of his favorites. 

I love this video because it shows how well Buddy knows his animals.  For example, he knows the difference between a penguin and a puffin.  Also, I am so happy that we have a recording of Buddy saying all the animal names.  I never want to forget how he says giraffe ("jaff"), zebra ("deba") and polar bear ("polo boy").

  1. Why you hating on Star Wars? Kids and adults a like should love the original trilogy and endure the other. I remember fondly teaching my nephew and niece odd things about a galaxy far, far away.

    1. The neighbor boys all have light sabers and fight each other (my biggest complaint).

      A couple of funny stories though: One day, Punky ran to me crying and said "They want me to be on the DARK SIDE. I don't want to be on the DARK SIDE." :)

      Another day the boys all had her pretend to be Darth Vader. She didn't get why they were all running away from her. She is much happier now that we've told the boys to pretend she is Princess Leia. :)
