Otto and James: April 2010

Crawling

James 8 Months

His knees are red in the photo from crawling. James started crawling while I was in Israel. He was making one forward motion before I left, but while I was gone he put it all together and is now an official rug rat.

Otto 3 years 2 Months

"Daredevil"

Another Play date with Aria

Aya, Max and Aria came for dinner tonight. It was fun watching the kids interact a little. The babies mostly just watch each other and play with an object by themselves. Otto played with his cars and told elaborate stories. He also gave Aria two gentle kisses.

Easter 2010

Otto and I painted eggs today for Easter.

Tomorrow I will take Otto to his first Easter Egg Hunt. Edmonds is hosting an egg hunt in their city park. Our goal is to find a golden egg which equals a special prize...

James' Play date with Aria

My good friend Aya and her daughter Aria came for a visit. Aria is 19 days older than James. We had a nice visit and the kids played nicely.

Sun in Seattle

James plays in the sun while I do a little yard work. Otto is napping.

Otto's First Day of Preschool

March 16, 2010

Otto's first day at the Mukilteo Academy.

He attends twice a week for 3 hours.

He cried a little when I dropped him off, but settled in quickly.

Pumping

Otto doesn't want to be left out of anything. Including pumping his boobies. It really makes him giggle.

Pajama Play

After breakfast Otto and James play in their pajamas. We've had to install a new rule for Otto. No touching James. He was just too rough and James kept getting hurt. Now Otto has to ask permission before he can touch James.
