Ten Months Old

 

Here's Abby at 10 months old.  She's sprouting teeth, and she's not too happy about it.  She crawls all over, exploring the house.  Her favorite foods are green beans, pears, and puffs - she'd really rather feed herself, so little snacks are her favorite.  She's getting pretty good at using the sign for "more" to let us know that she needs more puffs!   She loves to observe her siblings and imitate their noises.  Abby's become pretty suspicious of strangers lately - Mommy and Daddy only, please!

Ezra's Picks

We all filled out our brackets... even Ezra, participating for the first time.  His picking went like this:

Daddy:  Red or yellow?
Ezra:  Yeyyow
Daddy:  Ram or Tiger?
Ezra:  Tiger!

...and so on. 

As of today Naomi is #1, but Mom has a history of pulling ahead in the end.  Happy March!

Naomi's News

Naomi has joined the glasses club!  She chose the purple pair and takes meticulous care of them with her shiny pink case and wiping cloths.  We think she looks adorable!

Arguing With a Peacock

If this incident is any indication, we may have an aggressive driver on our hands in about 14 years.  Fortunately, the peacock took the moral high road and didn't argue back.

It Was Bound to Happen...

...and our guess is, this won't be the first time! 

Ezra got six stitches in his forehead after running into the edge of a wall.  He seemed to enjoy his adventure to the hospital for the most part - He came home telling everyone about the helicopter he got to see, and he was all smiles.  Even now, two weeks later, he takes pride in telling nearly everyone he meets, "I runned into a wall".

 

 

Johnathan was fascinated by the whole idea of stitches.  The next day, after examining them, he proclaimed, "Ezra gots threads!  Ezra, you got sewed!  That's so cool!!"

Tough guy!

Race Day

This year's Grand Prix cars!  Johnathan made a Star Wars land speeder, Naomi won 3rd place in design for her dophin in the waves, and (gasp!) Kevin's sushi roll won second place for speed in the adults division.  That's a Boaz family first... we're usually cheering if our cars cross the finish line at all!
