Zaeli working on perfecting the art of sitting


Zaeli loving on Jacob.


Zaeli loves mum-mums.

Zaeli is 6 months and 18 lbs. 9 oz. She's still working on the whole idea of sitting...I think she'll be a crawler. Today I caught her on her hands and knees...before she collapsed to her belly. She's not nearly as advanced as Theo...he was working on walking while holding onto fingers at this point. But they are very different. According to 'the book' Zaeli is a spirited/touchy baby, and Theo was a angel/textbook baby. Zaeli is in a stage where she shrieks...she could be happy, she could be mad. Theo just covers his ears.

zoo day

I packed up the kids and we headed to the Calgary Zoo with some friends. There were 21 of us!! And a large age range as well. The day was nice... I think it took 17 of us to run after Theo, Koen and Kace. The boys seemed to have had a great time. The animals didn't seem to matter much...they just got to run together! Theo really misses Koen and Kace.

Hard to believe it's this time already. Zaeli continues to grow and learn new things. The big accomplishment of the month was sitting. She doesn't do so for long...but she can do it. She thinks her brother is the greatest and is quite entertained by his silliness. He is able to get lots of giggles out of her.
