Happy Birthday, Cole!
Cole is turning the ripe-old age of 12 today, one more year closer to being an actual teenager. All we can say to that is, wow, time goes by fast!

1 year checkup, birthday pics and more
The boys had their 1-year checkup yesterday, and they are doing great. They are both now 29" tall. Zach is the skinnier one of the two at 18 lb 12 oz, and Alex weighed 19 lb 15 oz. Neither gained much weight since last time, but they are far more active now and don't have as much baby fat. A few bouts with colds haven't helped their weight either, but the doctor is happy with their progress.
Both of them have teeth coming in on the top. Alex has one that is out all the way and has a second one breaking through. Zach again is getting two teeth at once.
We all had a great time at the boys' first birthday party. Thank you so much to all of you who were able to come celebrate with us! Z & A had lots of fun with their cake. Alex picked up the whole thing and tried to fit it into his mouth, while Zach made a mess and ate the pieces. Pics from the party have been added to the First Birthday album.
There are also new photos in the general Jan-Feb 2007 album, including Z & A playing with their birthday present from us (a Little People garage) and trying some new foods, and Cole playing with his early birthday present - a Nintendo Wii (I have to admit - it's a lot of fun!).

Zach's first steps!
Quite a few guests got to witness some of Zach's first steps at the boys' first birthday party last weekend. Sadly, Mama and Daddy didn't get to see it. (Figures...). However, he did take a couple steps towards me yesterday when checking out the master bathroom (ah, the joys of exploration), and both of us watched him take a couple steps to Daddy when getting ready for bed this evening.
While Alex learned to crawl much later than Zach did, he's made huge gains to catch up to his "older" brother at a faster rate. He can pull himself to a stand, cruise along the couch, and crawl right up the stairs. Z & A just love to chase each other around the house, so I would imagine that as Zach toddles around more, Alex will be close behind him.
Wow, they grow up fast. Pics from the party will be posted soon.
