Today for the first time Charlie called me “Mommy” instead of “mama”. I wonder what brought about the change…

Today for the first time Teddy tried to laugh. He is so smiley.

Holding hands with Charlie and feeling that little hand in mine is the amazing.

Charlie is really into counting. He has an abridged method that goes 2, 8, 9.

He also likes playing with his baby doll. And reading the paper.

Yesterday Teddy was watching Charlie sing and dance and he was totally infatuated. It was like he realized for the first time that being in the world meant he could have Charlie as a big brother and that that is the most amazing thing in the world. It was one of the best things I have ever seen in my life.

C was thrilled that Raul came over this morning to paint Teddy’s room. He also likes to pretend to call Raul and say “Hi Raul” over and over.

Charlie spent a lot of yesterday practicing shaking hands with people and saying “Meet you”. And helping pick out paint colors (he calls all colors “blue”).

Teddy spent a lot of yesterday holding his head up, pushing up when on his tummy, and getting a bath in the kitchen sink.

C has also gotten to spend time with his friends Pascal and Isabella. And T got to be held by Lely. Please note C is wearing a back pack that was given to his mother when she was his age by her Uncle Morgan.

Teddy does not want to be put down.
