A Toothie Half Birthday

It's Luka's half birthday today - 6 months already!  She celebrated by cutting her first tooth two days ago with the second one is following closely behind.   Three months earlier than Roscoe had any teeth!  (but, then again, Roscoe got his first 6 teeth all at once...)

Check out how much she has changed each month:

Roscoe is thriving as a big brother and entertaining us more every day.  Here are just a handful of recent laughs he has given us:

* He stopped in his tracks the other day and, with a look of surprise, announced "my boogers falling out!" and then helped them out with his fingers...

* The Sunshine Song is a special one for us because he has loved it since he was just a wee one.  He is now singing along with us when we sing his favorite songs and sings with all his heart, "you make me HAPPY when skies are GRAPES!"

* The other day he noticed the tattoo on Ray's upper back (Baybayin lettering) and with his exaggerated look of concern he stammered, "who? letters? painted letters on Daddy's back?!"  Ray, ever the tease, played along and said "oh, no, Roscoe, can you wash them off?" and Roscoe made a valiant attempt while I stifled the giggles.

* He was dipping his naan bread in hummus the other day and announced, "dip-dip Thomas; more Thomas please!"
