Family Trips Zelaznys

Summer 2011 at Kill Buck

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

image-45Evan flew to New York with Grandma Z to spend a little over a week golfing and eating at Elkdale, meeting new friends, meeting Aunt Terry, playing with Gaga and Papa, and having a great time “in the forest” aka Grandma’s house. He also enjoyed building a bird house, seeing some Alpacas, and even drinking some of Grandma Z’s perfume. A big thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Z for having Evan stay with them. Check out the photos from his trip to New York.

Just Evan

Our Soccer Player

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

We signed Evan up for soccer a few weeks ago. After the second week – Evan could control the ball (reasonably), stop it with his feet, jump over it (two feet together) and more! He likes it and we enjoy watching him!

One Asian…

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Evan has been learning the “Pledge of Allegiance” in one of his summer camps. On the way home I was going through it with him where I would say a line and he would repeat – and when we got to “One nation…” Evan said “One Asian” – and made both Amy and me laugh. Good job Evan.

Cora and Her Shoes

Posted by: jzelazny | 2 Comments

Cora loves her shoes

There are not too many days that go by without Cora finding random shoes, putting them on her hands, and crawling around happy as can be. It does not matter who they belong to or if they match – she just likes putting them on her hands and scooting around with them.

She also tends to prefer them on opposite of the way you would put them on her feet. Regardless – if there are shoes around the house – there is a good chance Cora will find them and try and put them on…her hands. Early sign of a shoe fetish? We shall see…

Conversations With Evan: The Shed

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

It is funny to me to hear/see Evan’s thought process sometimes and this past weekend was one example:

Me: Evan we need to get the pool out of the shed.
Evan: What is a shed?
Me: Really Evan, you don’t know what the shed is?
Him: You mean the barn?
Me: Yes – the barn.

I loved that he thought our little 5×10 shed was a “barn”.

Firsts Just Will

First to Walk

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Second to be born, second to crawl, second to get any teeth, but first to walk. Will took his official first few steps in sequence today multiple times. I am sure his sister will not be too far behind but for now he is quite excited to try walking.

Good job Will!

Evan and His New Net

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Evan netting the Blue Gill

I have been taking Evan fishing every once and awhile now for the last few years. This was the first year I actually let him use a hook and some bait – and he – with the help of Grandpa Z a few weeks ago caught a few fish. Yesterday when we were at the bait store – he decided he needed a net so I bought him one. Once we got to our fishing spot he wanted nothing to do with his pole – and only wanted to make “mud smoke” by dragging the net in the water/mud. He did help me pull in a Blue Gill (in the photo) with his net and he was super excited. Hopefully next time we will get a huge fish that will actually require the use of the net 😉

At the Doctors

1 Year Doctors’ Appointment

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Yesterday we had their one year doctor’s appointment so I wanted to give an update for those of you who want to know…

Cora

  • 18 lbs 7.75 oz (12%tile)
  • 28 inches (18%tile)

The doctor was happy with her growth, pretty consistently small. 🙂 even though she is tiny she has taken over the role of eating everything. We now dump what Will does not eat onto Cora’s tray and she eats it.

Will

  • 23lbs 1.25oz (56%tile)
  • 30 inches (59%tile)

He also is growing well.

Both babies can stand on their own for a minute but no real steps. Will seemed to take a side step the other day but don’t know if we can really call it a step. They are both close.

Birthday Fun

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

img_3840Well – the first year has come and gone. We had a joint birthday party for the twins this year and had a lot of friends and family come and celebrate with us. Although the weather was not always cooperative – we had a great time eating Portillos and Costco cake as well as playing in the back yard with all kinds of fun toys. Check out the photos so you can see the excitement for yourself!
A big thanks to all that came out and joined us for Cora and Will’s first birthday!
