Zach slept 10 hours straight!!!!
Hallelujah! At almost 11 months of age, Zachariah just slept 10 hours straight through the night for the first time ever! Mommy is elated and hopes this will be the start of a longstanding trend.
On another "note," Zach's cousin Shane came home from school yesterday with a recorder, so of course we had to get out our box of instruments to play along with him. Zach discovered that he can make a sound by blowing into his recorder instead of just chewing on it -- and thus a new musician has been born!

What is it with Zach and diaper anecdotes?
Today I was returning to the "play room" after going to the kitchen to throw away Zach's dirty diaper when I heard him crying. Assuming that Annie was sitting on his head (again!) I rushed into the room, only to find that Zach was getting his diaper changed for the second time in as many minutes -- by his big sister! Annie had apparently knocked him over, removed his pants and diaper, and was in the act of studiously wiping his bottom with a wipe! Oh, it was hard not to laugh!
Then later in the morning (no more diaper stories for now) Annie and I were making pancakes, and we went to the pantry to get out the pancake syrup. She grabbed a half-full bottle of "Lite" syrup off of the shelf, but I took it from her and handed her a full bottle of regular syrup instead (tastes better) and asked her to take it to the table. On the way she dropped the heavy bottle on her foot. As she was picking it up and wimpering about her hurt she made me laugh by bemoaning, "Light syrup, want light syrup!"

WHERE was Zachariah made???
I don't often laugh while changing poopy diapers, but this one took the cake! When I removed the offending pamper from Zachariah's bottom last night I discovered that a strange item had passed through his digestive system: a small sticker stating the following fact previously unknown to me....
"Made in China"

Doctor Daddy done with dissertation?
Annie, Zach and I are waiting patiently (sort of) in Columbus while David is at Trinity reviewing final edits to his dissertation with his professors and handing in the final-final-final version of the behemoth. We're praying that it will be all taken care of before the end of tomorrow, which is the deadline to avoid paying another semester's tuition. Off to the right are some new photos of Annie and Zach in a new album. Enjoy!

Zachariah
It has now been 15 months since we came to Ohio to stay with David's parents, and so much has happened. Most importantly, Zachariah! Annie and Zachariah are both growing so much, and it is a delight to be with them every day watching each new development.
Annie talks up a storm and repeats everything I say now. Favorite phrases are "wan, tooo, fthreee" and "readeee, tset, doe!" (ready, set, go). Zachariah is almost crawling and loves to roll around the play room to discover new things to eat. He loves books the best!
Here's a video of Zach playing with his favorite ball. More blog soon regarding everything else -- gotta go feed Zach his "second breakfast".

New pictures of a chubby baby
Zachariah is almost three months old now, and he gets bigger every day! He's almost transitioned to size 3 diapers (Annie is still in 3's) and was 14 lbs 7.5 oz (90th percentile) at 2 months. Of course, the reason he is growing so much is that he likes to eat all the time..... what do you know, Mommy is being paged right now! Two convenient locations open 24 hours a day! :)

Zachariah is a big boy!
Zach had his most recent doctor's checkup last Friday. Praise God for his continued health -- at a little more than 5 weeks old he weighed in at 11 lbs 12 oz! I guess we can declare the boy a good eater for having gained more than 4 pounds in 5 weeks. He and Annie are relating pretty well. She likes to give him hugs and point at his ears, nose, hair, feet, etc and he stares at her in stark terror whenever she comes within his line of vision.
