Tomorrow, mom and dad will celebrate their 7th wedding anniversary (plus two and a half years of dating) - way to go! They went out friday to celebrate - left zac and me with tia, sammer, aunt lara and uncle raja for a few hours. we had tons of fun... they said they did too, but wanted to get back to us after only 4 hours. Crazy how mom thinks this was their hardest year - having a second child (who was colicky for 6 months) before i was even two - and then they can't be away from the things that made this their hardest year. Mom said that is how she knows she loves us to the end of time. anyway....

We have not done alot in the three weeks i haven't updated this thing (mom hasn't been getting alot of sleep again and so she hasn't been motivated to help me). We went to a fun pumpkin patch and picked pumpkins and rode on a hay ride with horses. We got our flu shots and then mom and i walked all the way home - about a mile. Mom was really impressed at my strength. I am still in gymnastics for an hour a week and in prepreschool for an hour a week. I went to the zoo with a girl from my class and our moms. That day i had the biggest temper tantrum my mom has ever seen from me. I really did not want to leave the zoo - all the other kids were staying, but mom said since i wake up two hours earlier than any other kid i don't have the stamina to stay up until 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Mom felt bad because she waited too long (1pm) to leave the zoo and that contributed to the tantrum. She had to hold me while i was screaming to calm me down long enough to put me in my car seat - i was sound asleep about 3 minutes into the drive home.

Zac is walking really well - running now a little. He caught on quick. Now he is also signing (to comunicate) with mom and dad as well as saying a few words. He definately says "boobie" (to nurse) and wawa" (for water). I guess he has the essentials down. He babbles on and on - we all just pretend to understand what he is saying.

So here are some more pictures ....enjoy. Talk to you soon.
