Lion Tamer

Sabine has always liked lions. She has a stuffed animal that she likes to cuddle with, a figurine who always gets a lot of play, and she's always loved our lion-shaped cookie jar. It's particularly appealing because it roars when you open its mouth. Today Sabine discovered she's finally big enough to pick it up and carry it around, so interest has been renewed:

Feeling inspired, I decided we should try and make a right-side-up video to redeem ourselves from yesterday. Her "roar" is just so cute.

That was a really weak roar. We tried a Take 2. I wanted more energy. Except Sabine was tired and hungry, so while she did give me more energy, she also threw in a little tatrum to boot.

We nixed lions for the rest of the evening and went straight to dinner.
