Bearing gifts they traveled so far...

Yesterday, Damon's parents visited for one reason and one reason only- Fuller. They brought him presents for his birthday from family in Montgomery. I won't go on about all the presents, but there are two that have to be mentioned.

The first one is this pouncing Tigger toy that bounces when you squeeze the tail. For three rounds the tigger gets faster and faster, playing music from somewhere within, and acting as happy as a plastic toy can. When the tigger pounce was demonstrated to Fuller, he just kind of sat there with this look of "What?" on his face. Then suddenly I turned Tigger toward the birthday boy and Fuller was full of fear. He did not like the Tigger and he did not like the pouncing action.

This morning I tried to demonstrate it again and he ran to the other side of the room. When I got home from work I brought Tigger out again and Fuller finally warmed up to the idea of the moving toy. He hesitantly will press the tip of the tail, hoping that the Tigger will play the music.

The second gift is also from Disney (these relatives took a trip there this summer) and it is a wand that has two globes on each end. Inside the globes are LEDs and when you press a button the LEDs spin around conducting a little light show for the smaller set. Fuller was immediately enthralled. It got even better when we took him into his bedroom, turned off the lights and pressed the button.

I still have no idea what we are getting him for his birthday but I think I'm glad the bouncing toy and something that lights up have already been taken care of.
