more ball bouncing
This is another clip of Debi bouncing a ball on Toren’s head to get him to laugh. We had friends over on New Year’s Eve and told them about this. They had to see it for themselves and are the ones you can hear laughing in the background.

Bean Sucker
We regularly have green beans as a vegetable accompaniment to dinner. Debi let Toren suck on a bean one night and was lucky to get it back:
