Lions and Cows and Noses Oh My!

The long awaited conversation has begun: Zev can now communicate the sounds of at least two animals and can correctly identify nose, ears, eyes, teeth and tongue! Turn up the volume to hear Zev's animal sounds. At Mrs. Tiggywinkle's toy store today Zev saw the giant stuffed dinosaur and immediately proclaimed "RAAAARRRRR." He's also begun helping mommy and daddy put the Duplo blocks back into their bin after playing with them. It's amazing to watch the world unfold in front of his curious eyes. He soaks it all up like a sponge. We're so thrilled that we'll have another baby in March. Zev loves to socialize with other children.

The Joker

Here's a video of Zev doing what he loves - riding on his truck and brushing his amazing head of hair.




I don't know how he got in without us, considering it's PG13, but I think Zev saw the new Batman movie...
That's blueberry/yogurt shake all over his face. Perhaps an aspiring actor?

Here are some more recent photos, some from a party at our house.

Walk this way Zev!

He gets about halfway across the room on his own!

Little Fish, Big Ocean

Below: On the Big Trucks ride at Fantasy Island in LBI (Long Beach Island). Zev was cool driving but daddy was a little scared.

Splashing with Grandpa

We just had an amazing week with Grandpa Jerry, Grammy Ray, Aunt Ruthie, Uncle Ben, the Kaufmans, Krichmans, Brodericks, Mintos, all of our friends and relatives. Zev loved playing with Jenny & Chris's son Owen and I am still in awe over how beautiful their 1 1/2 month old daughter Cassidy is. Zev's cousin Evan showed him how to play like a toddler and Lauren had lots of hugs and could always make him laugh.

Grammy's tickles!

Mommy & Zev....boy I love my sugarbunch.

Little Handyman

Here's Zev putting bookshelves together in our new home. Thank heavens since neither Jeff nor I are good with these tasks! So far, Zev's been thoroughly enjoying his new dwelling. Climbing stairs and using the remote to dim the lights are favorite activities. Today he met his 3 year old neighbor Dakota who lavished him with attention. We're so happy in our new neighborhood!

Zev's Eighth Month

Just figured out how easy Picasa is.

Dancin' Fool!

Today we were at My Gym and Zev did a number that had us all in stitches. He's a natural born dancer. Check it out.
