Baby Jail Laps

video

Izzie and Zoe run around baby jail for no good reason. We think Zoe might have been imitating one of the Flashdance numbers judging from her outfit... ;-)

A slightly higher resolution video is available at Flickr.

Marginally Mondo May Update

"Hi!"


The longish exposure gives a nice sense of Zoe's running...


All tuckered out...


Zoe enjoys some juice.


Zoe shows off her sprout.


Zoe sports a cheesy grin while hanging out with Mama.


Having been felled by Mama in their wrestling match, Izzie prepares to play dirty by gouging her eye. ;-)


Zoe turns exhbitionist/Flashdance imitator.  We're so proud. ;-p


Ozzie suddenly became very helpful when it became clear that food was involved.


The Twins enjoy some spinach white pizza.  Ozzie gallantly offers his assistance in cleaning up any that might fall.


Izzie has gotten better at interacting with Ozzie; much less violence is involved... ;-)


Izzie relaxes on the couch.


Izzie decides that Tato's shoe is an ideal hiding place for a ball.

Mmm... Blackberries?

We introduced the twins to blackberries recently. Their faces made us think that they didn't like them, but they kept coming back for more...



Blackberries taste bad!  Give me more...


Zoe is already opening her mouth for more blackberries as Izzie gets some.


Seconds later, Ulana's finger was devoured because it tasted too much like blackberries. ;-)


"Dude, those were some gnarly blackberries."  We especially like the fruity soul patch... :-)


Izzie has a bit of a stoner look here too... ;-)


More blackberry soul patch action...

Twin Egyptian Princesses

Today we received some beautiful dresses in the mail from Teta Tamar, Vuyko Andriy and family, who are stationed in Egypt.  Despite being a bit big, the dresses look very pretty on the girls.  Thanks!

The blue in the dress really brings out her blue eyes...


The Twins really seemed to like their new dresses!


The sprout in her hair is a new (and very cute) development...


Izzie knows how to ham it up for the camera. 


Creating and harnessing this totem pole was quite a feat.

Surprisingly Understated April Update

We haven't taken as many photos lately, although if you consider the Easter holidays, then I guess it isn't too much less...

 Zoe plays with some of the presents she found in her Easter basket.  Thanks, Babi and Dido! :-)


So sleepy...
Sleepy Head Izzie cuddles with her Teddy Bear...

Zoe is in quite a pensive mood here...
