Gabriella
















Milan Climbing
















Milan is not interested in walking by himself--he will cruise along the furniture and push things across the floor with him behind (like a walker). He has also started to climb--everything. He likes to push the toddler chair to the big table, climb up onto the chair to reach whatever has caught his interest on the table.





Here are some pics....

Update on the family 6-8-09

Kids are good.
Milan is into eating cat food. No matter how many times he gets his hand smacked, he goes back for more!!!! He thinks it's an all you can eat buffet....
At least he feeds the cats his food too.
Still no walking but he climbs on everything. Loves going up the stairs so we need the gate full time now.
Not too much talking either but loves airplanes and points everytime he hears one (which is often since we are under the flight path). He points for what he wants and grunts. He does know sign language for all done and more.
Gabriella is doing well too. She is trying to master the hula hoop and loves playing outside--especially with Milan. She is trying to read and makes up stories with her books. Mama has decided to pick up the reading lessons again since we are neb free with Milan (for the time being). She also has an imaginary friend--Lauren--who has lasted a week now. Normally there is a new one everyday.
She is doing better at night and is on her at leats 8th day of not wetting the bed at night.

Milan and the roasting pan
















I had to take home some infant panty's for work and try them on Milan. Yes they are girls panty's. He didn't seem to mind.





I got some great pics of him (in the panty's) trying to squeeze into a roasting pan...success!
