What a big girl Elaina is now! She can sit so well on her own, though she prefers to roll around on the ground
(or better yet, be in mommy's arms!)

Best Buddies
Even though they are complete opposites, Isaac and Nate are inseparable. They are the best of buds in the best of times and the best of buds in the worst of times. They are double the trouble-what one doesn't think of, the other one will.
Saul and I frequently look for new ideas and advice on how to raise a healthy, happy family. One of such ideas was to eliminate so many of the boys' toys that seemed to litter our carpet every day. On our quest to rid our house of all of the excess toys, we decided to go through the bath toys as well. We thought an acceptable compromise was two toys each, with the idea that, after all, we didn't have toys in our bath tubs - we just had to use our imagination.
Later that evening...while the boys were in the bath (and we were in the kitchen) we overheard two little boys squealing with delight, laughing and giggling so much! We thought out loud, "Wow! They are having more fun in the tub without the toys than they normally do with them." We had to investigate and see what was bringing them so much joy. As I turned the corner to peek into the bathroom, I was shocked to discover the new game they had created. Isaac, saying oh so sarcastically, "I got your penis Nate!", and Nate giggling fiercely. And then it repeated. Cheep thrills, eh? I guess in our quest to encourage creative little minds we got more than we ever imagined. What did we do? Get out the video camera, of coarse!
