Okay, now that they're both asleep, time to update about the boys...
Mark is doing well. Him being able to eat dairy still amazes me daily. Today he downed a yogurt drink at lunch, then begged for some of my feta cheese. Um, okay!? I didn't like the stuff until I was 25, but my 2.5 year old loves it!
He's talking pretty well now, which is a relief. He can say just about anything, and at times sounds like a parrot. I don't deny needing to translate for others often still, but that's getting better too.
Mark has picked back up the strange habit of chewing things, so we're working on making that more appropriate. Sometimes I think I have a puppy!
He's still our monkey, and is usually sporting the bruises to prove it. We're planning to build a fenced play yard this spring to give him more outlets.
Calvin's doing well too. We're working on a cold again, and last time it ended up pneumonia, so cross your fingers we skip that this time!
We're saying he's officially crawling, but it doesn't get him far. He only takes tiny little shuffles, and never more than 4 at a time. He gets further with his silly sit-sprawl-sit hip-roll moves.
Calvin's finally eating more like a normal baby. Some purees now, and some finger foods. He still doesn't have a real fine pincer grasp/release, so finger foods only really work if they're green bean sized or larger.
He's finally slowing down in weight gain, down to a couple of ounces a week instead of the 1/2 a pound it was. I think solids are helping with that. Heaven knows this kid loves the boobie!
I think that's it. :)
