On Thursday, my grand mother turned 88. Congratulations Savta!! She just moved with her 92-year old husband from Los Angeles to Boston. They are real troopers. They are even considering some trips in the near future. I hope that we will go visit them soon and we can go see Matthew and Mary as well. That would be great!

We had a nice night last night. We invited some people over for a BBQ, since Robert just bought a BBQ last week. We had Rachel, Deborah, Andy, Nicole and Diego, Veronica and Patrick over. Thanks everyone for coming and bringing dishes and wine!!

Patrick and Michael were trying to play together and sometimes they did fine, other times not so much. Here is a little video of them quarrelling about who goes through the door first. Michael was kind of possessive. I have never really seen him like that before :)


Michael and Patrick 9/21/08

Right after I took the video, Michael tried to crawl through the door and Patrick started pushing the door the other direction. Only this time, Michael's head was stuck between the door and the play house. At that point, we decided to separate the two little munchkins :)

Later on, they were fine again in the smaller play pen:

Andy was watching the Gator game and was playing with Mikey in the meantime. Lately Michael likes to drink water from water bottles. He thought that was what Andy had in his hand and as you can see Michael got all excited.

He licked the top of the bottle and realized it didn't taste like water. That's my boy!! Not intimidated by peer pressure :)

Michael is getting much more around. We bought a new area rug and he loves to play on it. It's a shag and the first time he felt it, he was a little confused. He gave us the same reaction as when you put him on the grass, he lifts both hands and one foot. So funny! So he pulls himself up on the coffee table and when he falls down he constantly hits his head against it. He had like 3 bruises on his forehead last night!! Poor baby!!

Last night, I fed him some yogurt (banana/strawberry with cereal) and he ate about 2/3 of the can. I was so happy he did this. We are going to try again today. Today Mimi and Poppy are here to watch the Dolphin game.
