Alexander and Jordan

February 1 - March 6, 2007

Alexander: Jordan and I are doing our best not to fall asleep after we are put to bed. Now that Jordan is in a toddler bed it is even easier for him to get out to play. We have a lot of fun reading and jumping and playing cars even though our parents get pretty upset when we are still playing an hour after they put us to bed.
My dad finally put the measuring stick back up on the wall, and we found out that I had grown almost 4 inches over the last year! Jordan is growing almost as fast as I did when I was his age.

Jordan: Don't tell Alexander but Baba Zhenya is talking about moving me up to the advanced room at daycare. Everybody says how smart I am and how quickly I pick up new skills. It is hard for me not to get a big head. It is justified though - I am pretty sharp. I know my colors, I often talk in 4-5 word sentences, and I can recite most of the book "Mr. Brown can Moo" from memory, etc.)

1. 2. 3.	1. From now on I will take all of my meals while I am sitting at the play table. 2. There is always time for a banana break. 3. My parents wanted to document the one time that we were actually sharing the train set.
4. 5. 6.	4. Do you want to wrestle? 5. Take that... 6. ...and that. Now maybe you will think twice before hitting me.
7. 8. 9.	7. I love this new cereal that you got us. 8. What? Do I have something on my face? 9. Now, how was it that Alexander did this?
10. 11. 12.	10-11. I would prefer if you did not disrupt our careful artistic processes. I am sure that Picasso's dad did not interrupt him while he was creating his masterpieces. 12. I think if I smiled any bigger, my face will crack.
13. 14.	13. The shoe band made its grand debut this month. 14. Don't we look cute together? We were meant for one another.
