Updates

Greta is doing all sorts of things lately: potty training, sleeping in a twin bed, and much to my dismay, pointing. I don't mean like, "What's that Mommy?" (asked while pointing), I'm talking about pointing as if to say, "You!"

Unfortnately, I can't blame Uncle Sam in this instance. So where did she learn this? Me! Way to go Mommy. Sometimes I feel that a simple "No Greta" just doesn't cut it and I add an emphatic finger point. Imitation is the sincerest form of what? Flattery? Not so much. Well, she also is doing other things, more gentle, sweet things that I'd rather dwell on. Take a look:

Laughing hysterically while talking complete gibberish is one of Greta's favorite things to do. That's her words, not mine. She likes to tell me her "favorites". Among those are: noodles and sauce (pasta with spaghetti sauce), apple juice, Little Einsteins, making up songs, Flintstones Vitamins, and Pirate's Booty (a puffed corn snack).

Now for Zeke: he's crawling everywhere and he's fast! Of course his most desired place to play is just inside the back door on Pepley's (our dog) bed. This is not my desire for him, for everytime I pick him up I get covered in the dirt and dog hair that has been deposited by said dog, or Daddy. I think Zeke will really enjoy the sandbox this summer. He does, however, also enjoy the bath tub.

As you can tell, Greta loves to do her part in washing Zeke.

This little baby likes to jabber as much as his sister, and a few words have actually emerged from the jibberish. I have a video of him saying "dog" but I'm having trouble uploading it, really. Pretty much Zeke enjoys a good cuddle the most, he is definitely a snugglely baby.
