Sleepy Weekend

We had a sleepy weekend. We played soccer, tennis, Chutes and Ladders, and tackle. But we mostly tried to catch up on rest.

We also had an early visit from a monkey and an octopus. We were not expecting them until Halloween.

October Fun

We've been having a fun October. We went to the zoo. We went out for pancakes. Alex and Julia both really like their new classrooms. Alex has been learning about planets, the days of the week, Picasso, and the letter A. Julia has been learning about leaves, applesauce, and blocks. At home Alex likes to do his "exercises" every night (see video). And Julia likes books, legos, drawing with chalk, and her stroller.

First Steps (?)

It is tough to distinguish falling forward vs. walking for a baby new to walking. But, this video has Julia pretty clearly walking 35 seconds in to the video. We think this is her best walking ever so we are calling these first steps.
