Two weeks..

What a busy two weeks its been! Since we last updated, so much has happened.
Immediately following the last post, Dylan began sitting up for good! He quickly figured out that falling hurts, so he stopped that. He also realized the swings are super fun (his first time in the swing he started crying very early on). He puts on his sunglasses, holds the sides of the swing and weeeeee.... Later that week, while Mommy was sick in bed, he had his first ever Frank Family Passover Seder at Grandma & Zayde's house. All the family was there and he got to hang out with everyone of his favorite people. He wore his Searsucker Suit Jacket that Grandma Liz & Dale got him, with a white button down and khaki pants. Following the Passover Seder's, he had a special week with Momma. He also took his cousin Clayton to the Bronx Zoo! The last day of his vacation with Momma was our playgroup meetup - where he proceeded in eating bread and honey dew. He also tried one of his friend Jayde's puffs. Though, his favorite foods seem to be apples with cinnamon or butternut squash with nutmeg.. It was a busy, busy two weeks for him and he enjoyed it all so much!
Since the last post, Josephine has had a lot going on in her days as well! The weekend of the Seder's was when she decided she would also start to sit up! She likes to sit up and play with Lettersaurus (meant for babies much older - 12 months!). Of course, by "play with" I mean eat. She also likes to be put in her crib sitting up so she can see what is happening outside of her little pen. She's been spending a lot of time laughing at her brother, and sleeping while he has fun on the swings. Her first time in the swings resulted in her having the biggest smile I've ever seen on that little face. She loved it so much and has been anxious to get in it again. She took her Aunt Hope to the Bronx Zoo, sharing the car ride with her brother. At the playgroup meeting, she was found by Mommy (in Momma's arms) chowing down on a piece of mango. When Momma moved it away, she grabbed at her arms and pulled the mango back to her mouth. Last that night, while Mommy was eating a salad, Josephine was laying on Momma's legs and was using all of her might to pull to a sitting position so she could watch Mommy eat. Yet, she isn't a fan of banana (unless pureed) or the puffs her friend Jayde shared with her. I think it requires too much chewing and she doesn't want to do more work than necessary. One of her favorite foods has a song written about it - apples and bananas, mixed. Josephine got to hang out with all her cousins (second cousins? first cousins once removed? we just call them cousins!) and have fun fun fun!
Right now the kids are planning their first ever road trip! The plan is that they will direct Mommy and Momma to North Carolina, Florida, back to North Carolina, Kentucky, then home. Since they are having trouble using the computer and paying for the hotels (they don't have jobs!), Mommy and Momma are doing most of the planning and figuring out the details.
Pictures will follow soon..
