9/1/07 Making up for lost time Our summer in pictures is here for your perusal... And one more comment for each kiddo: Maayan is an incredible artist. Not only can she write almost every letter, but she draws people ("stick people plus") with features! She's also drawn swings, a scooter, a sun, fish, and butterflies. Larry and I are

8/31/07 Oops Has it really been so many weeks since our last update? I guess so. After just a few weeks in "training," Maayan uses the potty day and night. She earned a toy kitchen, which both kids use to create endless fantasy dishes! We've spent a lot of time at the park this summer. The sprinklers are a big favorite for both Maaya

5/8/07 Updating the Masses Tani isn't exactly walking, but he's stringing together several steps. In just the past couple of days he's gone from taking 3-4 steps at a time to 7, 8 or more! But he often gets so excited and giggly he can't keep his balance and belly flops to the rug. He's getting a lot more enjoyment out of the playground, on the

2/26/07 Hard at work on her MFA in Creative Writing One of Maayan's favorite things to do is "writing," with a pad and pen. She knows how to write many letters, and recently even wrote (recognizably!) her name! Will she have a way with words in the future?

2/18/07 Tani's New Stats Tani's up to 19 lbs, 6 oz and 29 inches. If he doesn't stop moving around and using all his calories he might be mistaken for skinny. (Just kidding.)
