Speeding Up To Slow Down

A pretty quiet week here ... not much to report. A couple of visits with both sets of Grandparents. A birthday dinner for Great Grandma Katie. A little ballet. A little school. A little nanny time with Beatrice for Jack.

Let's see what we can tell you ... Jack got his first real shoes this week. He is trying to walk and sort of took a couple of steps tonight. He is eating like a champ - tofu, beans, cereal, bread, everything and he finally is getting down the feeding himself routine. He is still sleeping well and is down to three bottles per day - real milk has begun but he is on formula for another two weeks or so.

Lily is doing great. Her vocabulary is expanding by the day and she loves to read and draw. She is very busy and is very excited about Thanksgiving, Hanukah and Christmas. She is quite the little helper with Jack and loves her brother and she can always make him smile.

They a quite the duo ... a lot of fun but a lot of work. That free will thing is really overrated with children.

Until next week ... here are some pics and video. We got new, faster internet this week so we should have more videos from now on since they upload about twenty times faster.

Have a good week.
