Growing pains

My babies are taking leaps forward right now.  I love it and I don't.  I mean, wasn't it just yesterday that Calvin had that perfectly gummy grin?  He would lift his little pointer finger up and point at every light he saw. "Dat!"  He was little, lovely, fat and happy.  Now, he and Lydia talk to one another with their pretend phones (their hands) in the van as we drive.  They giggle and chat and call us in the front seats.  Lydia is talking so much now.  She makes sense too.  We are past Greek stage and have moved into semi-understandable most of the time.  She is so excitable!  She cheers for herself often.  "I did it!"  Knox is so close to walking.  He is Grabby Grabber and has a giggle quota every day.  At bedtime, if he hasn't met it, he waits with anticipation in his eyes for a tickle or a peek-a-boo then inserts his fingers into his mouth when he has met the quota.  He is so emotionally aware and connected.  Our little love bugs are just growing up
