The Six Month Milestone

Zoe and Kaia will be six months old the day after tomorrow. Yippee! Who would believe these tiny giants began as preeemies? Both are as big as or bigger than their nine-month-old cousin.

Six months without catching a cold or the flu leads us to a big shout out to the makers of Purell Hand Sanitizer. We're now working on making it through flu season. Any chance we could get a bulk discount, Purell?

Zoe is just beginning to crawl, making her first few moves forward yesterday while belting out a little battle cry of triumph.

Kaia loves her exersaucer and spinning herself around by pushing with her feet on the rails of her crib. Perhaps we shall nickname her Legs of Steel.

Last night I dreamed that Zoe stood at the edge of her crib holding the top rail and peered over the bar at me, as if to say, "Mommy, I'm going to climb out and run around now." I'm sure it won't be long.
