album cover version 1

in case the boys decide to start a boy band (they could be bigger than the jonas brothers and the olsen twins combined!), we are collecting possible cover art.

bird day

There is a bit of great great aunt evelyn in max, don't you think? maybe some great great uncle larry in morris??? throw in a little aunt lily, grandma carol, and mom for a nice family picture.

peas

so far, we've tried apples, pears, sweet potatoes, and peas. fruits are a huge hit. they can't get enough. sweet potatoes seemed to make max's cheeks get really red - might have been an allergic reaction, but very cute. they have been going back and forth on peas. one day one likes them and the other hates them, then the next day it reverses. on this third day of peas, morris demolished his own serving and then went on to eat max's peas because max just kept making drooly razberries every time he got a spoonful.









today we will try acorn squash.

no strings!

Sorry about the long pause. We were learning to do new things. Here, Max demonstrates sitting up.

Haute Barnyard

We visited a farm near Princeton, NJ yesterday called terhune orchards. It was awesome. Boys are going to have some yummy homemade applesauce, mushed green beans, and pureed sweet potatoes to feast on (we have to make it first . . . ). Great produce and amazing baked goods (mom & dad had beef pie for dinner AND THEN apple pie for dessert). They also had a small petting zoo. Here is Morris encountering a horse for the first time:
They also had an odd Johnny Appleseed exhibit. That fox is not alive - the chicken wire is purely decorative. Dad and Max were, obviously, the photographers.

Art Lover

Here is Max visiting the an art gallery to check out the opening of a show of work by the artist, Charles Gute. We also hit a few Chelsea galleries where Max offered his critique with very loud drooly rasberries.

Jaws

You know, if you click on any of these pictures, you will see it nice and big - and get a better view of those cute little teeth.

BARACK O-BABY!!!

Anything is possible! They will have dual citizenship so, as their Grandpa Steven has pointed out, Max can be Prime Minister of England - or visa versa. Oh, and by the way, MORRIS HAS TWO TEETH!!! They poked through on the bottom yesterday. Two days of the poor thing screaming all night - and all for a couple of teeth!

YUM!

belated birthday

Yes, yesterday, was another one. The boys' combined age is ONE YEAR OLD!! So amazing! Its been a great six months and today we will start solid (well, mushy) food. Would have started yesterday, but parents forgot to buy spoons. Will let you know how the eating thing goes.
