February 27

Here is Tyler modeling his boots onesie. Such a cowboy, that one.

February 26

Nicholas jumping around in the jumper. We discovered that the secret (if there is such a thing) is taking off their socks so they can get a good grip on the floor. He's wearing his "boots" onesie from Kate's mom.

February 25

"Gee Mom, thanks for letting me play with the common cold," thinks Tyler. What can I say; he's a doctor's son! You can get your very own cold, or bookworm, Black Death and more at Giant Microbes

February 24

Standing Boy strikes again! That onesie makes him look like such a big boy.

February 23

Nicholas is VERY tired...

February 22

This is how Tyler flirts with cute women. What you can't see in this picture is the little "heh" he says. He has good taste too -- here he's flirting with Melissa Etheridge!! Good boy!

February 20

Meet me at the exersaucer in five minutes ...

February 20

This is probably my favorite picture of Nicholas. It really captures his smile. Who could not love that baby?

February 19

We call this behavior "swimming" -- he pulls all four limbs off the ground and wiggles them around. Only Tyler does it so far. We have a video of it I can share if I can find hosting for it.

February 18

"Who's foot is this? Is it good for sucking?" says Nicholas. Meanwhile, Tyler is thinking, "Who is playing with my foot?"

February 17

"Not now, Mom! We just woke up!" Notice how Nicholas is sucking on Tyler's hand.

February 16

My, how they've grown...

February 15

Nicholas contemplating strategies for successful swallowing of cube. He decided to gum it into submission.

February 14

I can see now that sharing is going to be a hard lesson for Nicholas.

February 13

"Yum, teething ring," says Tyler. Meanwhile, Nicholas is thinking, "Hey! Give me that!"

February 12

Nicholas demonstrating his incredible wingspan. Soon nothing will be out of reach. The poor cats will be traumatized.

February 11

Hi, my name is Tyler and I have no sense of perspective. I think I can fit this thing in my mouth as if I were a snake.

February 10

Air bath! Everyone in! Boy, do they ever love being naked. Can't say as I blame them.

February 6-9

A short pause due to sickness on the part of all parties. Sorry folks, but you didn't really want to see pictures of the snot production.

February 5

A picture of Tyler and Nicholas playing together in the batting cage. You can really start to see how much they've grown.

February 4

Tyler prefers to sit. I adore this picture of him; he looks so happy.

February 3

Nicholas is standing boy! He does not like to sit, thank you very much. He'd prefer to stand. Kate is giving him some balance but he's doing that mostly on his very own.

February 2

How Tyler manages to get his feet out of every outfit ever devised I will never know, but he's always happy when he does.

February 1

Tyler is demonstrating the proper carrying technique for the coupon box; it's a very important job assigned to the front baby during grocery shopping.

January 31

All ready to go out! Aren't those hats just the cutest thing ever in the history of the world?

January 30

Playing on the floor can be fun! Here you can see they've decided to hold hands before the black and white bead-thing devours them.

January 29

Okay, they're both in the "sucking hands" phase. I haven't seen a full face in days. The funniest thing is when one of them starts sucking on the other's fist; funny looks abound.

January 27

CAUTION: Cute babies below

January 26

Tummy time for everyone! Nicholas has rolled over and Tyler is considering following his example.

January 25

You wouldn't know from this picture that Tyler's still not sleeping through the night. He looks so peaceful, the little bugger.

January 24

Nicholas having his morning nap. Bailey is donating some sleepons...

January 23

Nicholas says "I love my hand!!!"

January 22

I'm going to cry in relief the day they can hold their own bottles. We keep practicing (Tyler is demonstrating) in the hopes that day will come soon.

January 21

Nicholas is modeling his Old Navy outfit on his way to his MRI. It's the only outfit we had that didn't have metal of any kind. Aren't those stripey pants just too adorable? He was a champ for the whole thing; he didn't even complain when they added another hour of fasting for him.

January 20

Now HERE'S a picture of Tyler smiling. He really loves that exersaucer.

January 19

I was trying to get a picture of Tyler smiling. The only way to do that was to hold him up in the air, and even then you don't get the full effect. He's adorable.

January 18

They got these outfits for Christmas and I love them! They are so cute!

January 17

Tyler showing Nicholas who is boss. Nicholas is completely content.

January 16

Nicholas' first ride...

January 15

I think this is my favorite picture of Nicholas. It's really hard to catch his smile but it's so endearing.
