An overly long video of Declan eating an apple.
What I like most about it is how much of his personality he exhibits in this (relatively) short time.
The funkiest thing, about half an hour later, was that Dex politely handed me just the stem of the apple. He had eaten everything else. He grimaced a little when the seeds went down, but polished the whole thing off like a real trooper.
(may have to crank the volume a bit to pick up what he's saying...)
So did you accept the kind offer of a bite of the appleappleapple?

I'm glad he didn't stick the seeds in his ears, as did our Ben.
Fargin' iceholes are blocking even your videos now. I could play them up here before. Oh well, I'll watch it at home.

My daughter eats the stem, too, and frowns while she does it. "I don't like that part," she'll tell you, after the fact.
She also tried to eat a peach pit, but claimed her "teeth wouldn't let" her.

Sarah, yes I did. I do my best to accept, where reasonable, all offers proffered by my boys.
