The boys are starting to say more and more words, which is very cool. Yesterday we went to Giant and they were excited about seeing balloons and said "ba, ba".

Leo likes the "b" sound and often says "buh, buh". He calls many things "bebe" -- including Adrian and Nijntje. And of course he still says "mama" all the time. Adrian is quite good at the animal sounds -- "wat zegt... de koe?" "boooeee!". A running joke Adrian and I have is about his socks. When I ask him, "Adriaan, waar is je sok?" -- he'll look at his foot and laugh.

They are socially quite aware. Something when I bring them upstairs they wave and say "dag dag" by themselves. And Adrian often says "ne" or "nee" when something questionable is happening in the household.

Sasha and I are now in the final stages of recovery from cold number 10; Nora and the boys have been fine for a few days now.
