He's upwardly mobile now...

Zach has been walking for several months now, and it seems that he has taken after his father and decided to move upward...He's a climber! Last week, I found him reading on the dining room table, and just Friday night, he climbed on the coffee table. I don't know how much higher I can go with some of our "needs to be out of reach items"!!

Then and now...

Well, we are now taking weekly belly pictures so Michael can make another amazing video of my pregnancy. You just can't look at these pictures without wondering about the way I was when I was pregnant with Zach. Here are some pictures to compare. The one on the left is when I was pregnant with Zach; the right is now. (and yes, I did look much better then...that's what I get for wanting to try a new haircut in January...) Michael says he can't tell a difference...I certainly can!! I am carrying much higher, if that means anything. As of last week, I've only gained one pound...but I go back tomorrow, and I'll bet that will change!!

Zach and the Sprinkler

We took Zach to my parents' house so we could visit with the whole family. (My brother and his family were up from Houma, LA, trying to escape Gustav) With the nice weather, Zach was able to play with his cousins in the sprinkler, and as you can see from this clip, he loved it!!
