Alexis and Timothy are now sharing a room. So far so good... knock on wood. They haven't waken each other up yet. Alexis has figured out how to climb on top of her bed and get into Timothy's crib. I heard her calling from her room the other day saying, "Mom, I'm a burrito baby!" When I arrived to her room I see her pretending to be a baby in Timothy's crib. She is so grown up one minute and then I turn around and she is trying to be a baby again. I don't get it...Timothy is also eating more real food now. He eats bananas, sweet potato puffs, and then his rice and oatmeal cereals. He makes some classic faces when trying new foods... I have yet to capture them on "film". He loves to eat real food and every time I eat he looks intently at me food. I think he is ready for more things to eat...
David finished his rotation at Target and is now in the psych ER at Kino. So far so good, but they aren't allowed to wear ties... I can't imagine why. He is writing many more papers right now. On top of his rotation he has a research project and several papers to write. He has to investigate different drugs and how they work, interact with other drugs and other such things. Not really sure exactly what he does... but I know it is more than I could ever understand... and he works really hard. He also heard back from his Yuma rotation preceptor and was told that we would be on our own for housing. That really stinks because now we'll be bunking at my folks house and sharing one bathroom between several people. It will sure be interesting.
That reminds me that Timothy is now a "big boy" and in a real car seat and pulls himself from sitting to standing now. He is also on the verge of crawling. For some reason I think that Alexis grew up much slower... but then again I was working and she was with a sitter lots of the time. I must say that being home this time is a much different experience, but in a good way. No longer hearing... "guess what they learned today?" instead I get to see it first hand. I can see how it can be hard on dads though. David works all day and comes home to me saying, "Guess what Timothy did today!?" Maybe I ought to get out the video camera and start to document these first moments so David can see them too.

Above are a few pics from a recent visit to the zoo with aunts and Timothy rolling in his blanket... making himself a burrito baby... Enjoy!

He is so cute! He's going to be a heartbreaker!
does he look like dave, or what? the baby fat is going bye-bye!
I always think about how hard it must be for dads to not see all the "firsts," too. But then after a long weekend I think they're also happy to get back to their life outside of home. I guess it's different when you grow up knowing you're going to be the breadwinner and that means being gone?
