Well, it's been a while since I have been on, since we don't have internet I have to hijack other people's whenever I am at their houses. Today it's Papa Kincaid's that's being borrowed. :)
Natalya is getting bigger and bigger. She is occasionally showing some jealousy, but not too bad. She is such a good big sister- very helpful and sweet to her brother. She is doing great at gymnastics- she almost did a cartwheel by herself last week, and showing a lot of interest in writing and reading. She can write her initials (entire name is a little difficult at this point) and can read a few words, plus a lot of recognition (Target, Walgreens, things like that). She is also awesome at puzzles and matching, things like that.
As for Zachary, he is getting big! He had his 2 month appointment last week and he was 14 lb 4 oz and 24.5 inches long. (Totally off the chart altogether). A big boy. He is nursing great, sleeping better and will now watch you leave the room and reach and grab things. He has one crib toy (that was Natalya's, from Uncle Ken and Aunt Susan) that he loves, the first thing he reached for, that he loves to reach out and grab it and try to get the rattle into his mouth. Doug swears he said mama yesterday when he was hungry and I wasn't around, but we'll hold out on that to make sure it wasn't a fluke- as it's a wee bit early to be saying words! He does love to coo and gurgle and will lock eyes with you and make these gurgles in the back of his throat. He is so intense when he does this- it's really sweet! Loves his baths too. If he's upset and crying uncontrollably, with no solution, bath is the answer, it is a great way to distract him, although he doesn't often need distraction.
We are so lucky to have such sweet children. I am a truly lucky person.

Bigger and Bigger they grow
Natalya is officially three and a half today and Zachary is over two months old!! I just can't believe it. Natalya is such a good big sister and Zachary is such a good baby, I couldn't ask for more.
