First words

While Caleb and Joshua have been saying "Mama" and "Dada" for a while now, within the past couple weeks it has become clear that they now know what those words mean. For instance, they will say "Mama! Mama!" while looking straight at me, and will stop as soon as I pick them up. Such smart boys! ;)

The boys are also cruising all over the place now. They love to walk over to my laptop and pound on it. They're also testing their limits more and more each day... lately they have been letting go of the couch or table with one hand while simultaneously hoisting one leg way up in the air. Caleb likes to do repetitive squats while holding on to the couch- up and down, up and down. His thick Wolf legs must be pure muscle! Joshua will let go with both hands and stand up all by himself for up to a minute, now. He can even bounce up and down while standing without holding on to anything. Yesterday he tried to take a step but promptly fell over. We're pretty sure that it won't be long before he's walking.
