Chef (Sheik?) John Kalman

This is gross on many many levels. But, what can I say - the kid loves to cook. :)

((The chef hat is a requirement because it makes mommy laugh.))

Just another day at breakfast...

I have NO idea why John Kalman is not dressed in this video. I am sure there was good reason for it at the time. :)

We're ba-aack!

It's been MONTHS since I've posted anything to this blog, and I wanted to update you all on the lives of the little ones. Things in Virginia are going well. The boys seem to be fully adjusted to their new home, and despite the fact that they continue to miss all of their San Francisco friends, they are staying busy and going on lots of "adventures." Here's a video of one of our wintry excursions. We had three memorable snowfalls this winter - one on the day we arrived, one in January, and our last one (we hope!) in February. John Kalman loves the snow, but poor Eleck isn't quite sturdy enough to move around in it.

Baby steps

Eleck took some of his first steps this week, but he waited for Nini and PapPap to arrive before he really started walking. He is so proud of himself.

Copycat

Here are some of Eleck's new tricks. Now if he could only say "mama!"

Crawl City

Eleck's favorite toy!

Hit the Road, Jack!

Apparently Ray Charles is the man.

Eleck and John Kalman just love listening to him. Every time we turn it on or sing it to the boys, they are instantly happy!
