Today Aunt Becky from Raleigh, NC came by for a visit! It was fun to have her play with the kids and see her again after many years. Zara seems to be getting better about letting people hold her. We've been working on it a bit, and Becky was able to feed and hold and cuddle Little Girl!
Roman was very entertaining, and acting very "snarky" as we like to say.
Zara continues to make progress, and frankly, it's hardly worth talking about on a therapeutic level anymore. The nine-month well-care visit to the pediatrician was on the 16th, and Zara appears completely on track for her age, as does Mr. Roman. Z still does have what might be some "tongue weakness," but it will take care of itself. (Until then, photos like this will be smattered throughout her portfolio, poor kid!)
This is a photo of Roman looking very much like his dad when Todd was little. I had to include it! See that mischievious grin? I'm hoping that doesn't mean, as our friend Brooke says, that he's "Trouble!"

We are doing our best to baby proof the house. Despite what it looks like in this picture, we keep them away from cords and plastic! We have to get the baby gates up and all the other things that are must-dos for their safety.
We're planning a trip to Minnesota the first week of July. We are taking it in the mini-van! I am hoping that well-laid plans and some flexibility will enable a good trip! It's a trip to see my "peeps" since many of them haven't met the babies (or vice versa, however you want to look at it!) and Zara of course, must meet my mentor, Sharon Johnson, since she is Zara Sharon.
Lately we've been able to go on late afternoon (early evening) walks with Todd after he finishes work for the day. The five of us (Fluti comes, too) hit the road with the BOB Duallie stroller and enjoy the evening as the air starts to cool. We've had to pull the stroller backwards sometimes since the sun gets in the kids' eyes and they cry about that! But it's still quite enjoyable.
There has been an increase in baths lately--more "solid" foods have made for messier babies, and messier diapers! In general, they really like baths, especially Zara. However, the latest bath time, for whatever reason, had her very upset. So we have a photo of Romey to represent them both this time.
