They were long in coming, but new pictures are finally posted!
In other news, Zachary has discovered how to clap his hands, and it's so adorably cute! He's also decided that 23 pounds is too much to pick up off the floor, so he rolls if he wants to get anywhere (often getting stuck against something). Have to keep the floors clear now, he'll eat anything that's not too big or pureed. He still only has 2 teeth.
Timmy is progressing well in lessons, although his enthusiasm is waning fast. He can write his numbers and has read the first 9 Bob books. He doesn't like to admit it, but he can say many of his prayers in Latin just from hearing me teach them to Lucas.
Lucas amazes me... both his ability to comprehend complex subjects and his tendency to forget the simplest instructions (like don't move the play house while your younger brother is on its roof). He can be a really big help when he wants to. Just yesterday he browned a pound of hamburger meat for me to help make dinner. He'll often unload the dishwasher without being asked, or do a chore I've asked Timmy to do. He still has his moments, but the good ones usually outnumber the bad.
While we were home sick the kids spent a lot of time rediscovering their Christmas presents. Their favorites were the snap circuits and super structs. After watching a "Build it Bigger" on Ferris Wheels, Lucas decided to build one of his own (small scale).
