Lots going on!

The days just seem to fly by. It is so hard to believe that Zach is almost 23 months old! He finally did pop a small part of another tooth through this week. The I tooth on the upper right (if you are looking directly at him). The one below that should be coming in any day now. We also figured out he probably has an allergy to strawberries. He continues to be very active and is definitely showing signs of wanting to be independent and express his opinion!
I am also happy to report that he has finally said a few words besides 'mama', 'dada', 'nana' and 'pop'! He said "this", "yes", 'toes' and "cow". He also tried to say 'aunt' and 'auntie', and 'Zach'. I hope this means he is moving in the right direction with his speech and that new words will be coming regularly.

Brian started working night shifts a week ago at Dow. It is a 3 to 4 week job which is a good start. We are hoping this union he switched two will have regular job opportunities for him. So, everyone keep your fingers crossed!

Here are some recent pics from different events. The first set is from a newer indoor play ground that is in Sherwood Park. Zach and Kaylyn had a blast! Too bad I didn't find out about it earlier...they opened last September and kids under 2 are free! Once he turns two I have to pay....which kind of sucks. But, we can spend all day in there if wanted to. There are also arcade like games that you have to use tokens to play and then you get prices. This part is similar to the old Bullwinkles we had in North Edmonton in the 1980's!

The second set of pictures is of his new raincoat! He didn't want to take it off! Well, kind of perfect timing considering he had a water gun in his hand!!

Auntie is shocked that he isn't wearing a monkey raincoat.
