Xavier is working on walking. He’s great at standing and can cruise about 2 steps consistently, he’s had a few longer voyages covering 2′-4′ of ground, but they are still the exception. Oskar mastered the monkey bars yesterday, swinging from bar to bar to bar with some effort, but getting the confidence he needs to master it all the while. The basement is under construction. It’s still a ways off but it’s looking great so far. We fired up the projector last night and watched Dora the Explorer on the wall since we don’t have a room as of yet. Since I haven’t updated in a while… let me add that Deep and Sue came out for a visit and we took a trip to the Hancock downtown. I’ve got a mess of pictures to upload. This weekend is the Solo Learning Curve driving school. Chris and I will be heading down to Joliet for two full days of training and a day of competition.

Friday, March 31st, 2006Wrapping Up Christmas Holiday
Friday, December 30th, 2005Xavier has been changing by leaps and bounds, among the most recent change is his ability to wave goodbye to people he loves. He also crawls quite well now, moving to where he wants, when he wants. Occassionally, he will pull himself up to a standing position, although usually only to get his hands on small toys to put in his mouth. Christmas at Patty’s house was fun especially for the kids. Xavier is still working on his presents but has loved (and eaten) pretty much every piece of wrapping paper he can get his hands on. Erik and Pammy head back today. Rachel left this morning (with a wave from Xavier) and Chris and Steve left earlier this week. We took the boys down to the Chicago Children’s Museum earlier this week and the kids had a great time.
