The girls have been biters for awhile now. Whenever one has something the other wants, she bites her sister. They have been better lately, but today, while Daddy was cutting up the chicken, J decided that she wanted the car that O had. So she bit her face. Poor O has a huge bite mark on her face. I would feel really badly for her, except I know that she has given her sister quite a few nasty bites herself.
They are really into reading right now. They love any books with touch and feel kind of thing. They walk over saying "Book? Book?" and holding out the book for you to take. Then its "up!". And once one is on your lap, the other one comes toddling over "up! up!". It seems that the simplest books (like the ones with 5 pages and 5words) can be read over and over and OVER, while the more interesting books with lots of words just won't do, and get tossed to the floor after a page or two.
They are loving the pool. Memere and Pepere have a blow up giraffe (named Nathaniel) that floats around in the pool. They love to point at it and say "Giafe", but when it comes within touching distance, they lose their tough exterior, clinging and shaking their heads "NO!".
Walking and talking a ton (although not always in a language that I understand). They are so funny and so much fun. Tomorrow (0r today rather, as it is 1:30am) we are going to Southwick's Zoo for the first time. It is Multiples Day, 1/2price for families with mulitples, so it should be interesting!
