Oh how we love you! Peter, working on fuller and fuller sentences. Understanding things more. Imagination expanding. Loud and energetic and Christmas obsessed. "Let's make Christmas!" you said, as we saw Christmas decorations popping up around our city. Still broadcasting that constant train channel in your brain. Constantly humming "Eye of the Tiger," and even plunking it out on the piano on your own.
Joanna, going 100 miles an hour. Eating everything you can pinch in your tiny fingers. Using your four teeth (two on top, two on bottom) to the greatest advantage. Crawling fast, sometimes on your feet like an elephant. Pulling up, standing, sitting down. Trying things, exploring things. Climbing stairs. Amazing at imitation. Waving hello, mimicking sounds, signing "more," and "water." Making us laugh with your scrunchy faces and silliness. How can you already have such a developed personality full of humor we ask ourselves?
And you two together. Peter is still trying to figure out what being "soft," means. And he's pretty sensitive about your taking his toys, little one. But mostly you play together and giggle and laugh. I love it and I'm excited for you two to catch up to each other so you can play more consistently, with less danger from your big brother playing too hard.
We love our little family and we love this time of year.
