Daniel’s birthday is Wednesday, but we had his party on Sunday when we were all home. 

Daniel definitely understood the concept of presents even better for his birthday than he did this past Christmas.

This video of Daniel with a door latch toy has a lot of great samples of him saying animal names.

Daniel’s current favorite word is “stuck”.  Before that he had a brief period where his favorite word was “no”.  His original favorite word was “more”.  “More” was resurrected today with the present opening.  After the first several presents, Daniel would open one and then say “more” and go to the kitchen to pick out another to open.
