Chillin' in the crib

For those of you not in the know, these days Zoe's crib is pretty much THE place to be from 6:30am-7am.

An Eleni Cheerios attack in three acts

1. Pounce

(Note "pouncey" feet.)

2. Evaluate

(The mark is oblivious.)

3. Enjoy

(What Zoe doesn't know about her Cheerios stash won't hurt her.)

Trying out the boss's chair

Eleni says: OK, I'm ready, let me at that keyboard, mister!

Zoe says: Did you have an appointment? I didn't think so. Please close the door on your way out.

Appearances can be deceiving

At first glance, this appears to be a happy child crawling under one of her toys.

In fact, this is a child who does not yet know how to crawl, but who has managed to somehow manuever herself, backwards, underneath one of her toys. She is in fact trapped there. And not happy about it.


So of course, we ran off to find the camera...

The little joys of summer

Zoe says:

One of the very best parts about summer is the casual dress code.

It's never to early to start learning manners.

For example, no putting your feet on the kitchen counter until AFTER dinner.

Miss Manners would be so proud.

*sigh*

Tummy Taps

When Zoe doesn't have a shirt on, she taps her belly.

It just feels nice, I guess.

When Eleni doesn't have a shirt on, she claps.

Of course, she does that when she has a shirt on too.

Dualling Raspberries

Eleni goes at it with gusto; Zoe's is more dainty.

Again with the learning

Eleni just discovered how to take apart the play floor.


More learning.


Learning, learning, learning.


Oh the joy.

Introducing Urkel Marousis

Zoe and Eleni are about three pounds apart, which means that they don't always wear the same size diapers. This is a bit of a pain in the butt, so we tend to push Zoe into the larger size as soon as possible.

And it works.

Trust me, Zoe, high waistlines are making a comeback.

Get to work, mommy

Oh, look.

Eleni learned out how to open the drawer.

...

This learning thing -- I'm not sure how I feel about it.
