Benjamin now climbs on everything. Today, he climbed up from the floor to the couch and from the floor onto a coffee table.

We are entering a truly dangerous phase…?

Becca has finished her third week of school.

First week saw lots of crying- some even by Becca…? – but each da, less and less. The second week, she whined a little on the way in, picking up in intensity as we got closer, but she pretty much trudged her way in without too much hassle. This last week, it’s been even better. Only a single day of crying.

Her teachers are completely pleased with her progress. She plays, participates, even helps.

The teacher posted a bunch of drawings from all the kids. Becca was notably the only one without any regard for coloring between the lines. Can’t yet conclude whether that is ineptitude or independence. From what I have seen, probably a bunch of both.

Still, she’s my little doll. Crazy about her, even as she makes me freaking crazy.

Lately, Becca has been watching Spiderman 3. In fact, she woke up this morning, opened her eyes, and called out”Spiderman”.

Benjamin is closer to standing and is slowly picking up how to clap.
