Words from the kids

Koen's mastery of the English language it pretty amazing.  He knows about 70 words including bulldozer, motorcycle, police car, tow truck, strawberry, the list goes on and on because he copies everything we say.  Tessa is now getting in on the act and she can say "Uh oh", Duck, Moo, and dada.  We encourage her to say mama but she is not there yet.

We now ask ask Koen "Are you ready for night, night?" and he replies "No".  We ask "Are you sure?" and he says "YES".  He is really able to communicate quite well now.  

Although Tessa is not crawling on all fours yet, she gets around the house by slithering around on the floor like an army soldier in the fox hole.  She got from the living room to the office all by herself tonight!

Tomorrow we are going to Houghton's Pond for our first "meet-up" play date with 6 other families like ours.  This should be fun for the kids to run around together.  Hopefully we all get along and plan other dates soon.
