Here’s Aaron waiting very patiently for Dr. Ouchi. Yes, Ouchi, tho it’s not pronounced ow-chi (that would be way too funny for a pediatrician!) , but o-chi w/ a long o. He’s 27 1/2 inches long and 17 lbs, which puts him at 75% for height and barely 50% for weight. He’s on his way to being a bean pole.

Here’s some of the latest pics. of the boys. I know, it’s been too long since anything new has been put up. I’m just lazy. and tired. Tho, I shouldn’t be… Aaron is sleeping through the night (completely!). He’s finally rolling from front to back and his favorite position to sleep in is on his left side. He just discovered the “m” and “b” sounds, so he’s been saying “mamamama” and “bababa”, but the best is “mmmba”. And he doesn’t giggle, just squeals— and it’s really, really loud, and really, really high-pitched. You don’t want your ear too close to his mouth when he lets loose, b/c your ear will be ringing afterwards.

Alex started his new/old school (long story) and is so incredibly happy there. And he doesn’t come home anymore and say “so-and-so punched me today” or “I got pushed and punched again.” I hated his old school. Now, he comes home and says “I learned about Chinese animals today” or “I was inside a giant bubble and blew little bubbles inside it!” (This actually happened. Mr Bubble came to the school and the kids got to make humongous bubbles)
