Post-Christmas Catch Up

Greetings from sunny Ohio (seriously)!  We've had a busy week since returning from the southern road trip.  Lots of great family visits.  And now Zainy Boy is dealing with his first cold.  It's been a rough few days - for us anyway.  He seems to be taking it in stride - smiling through the sniffles and shortened naps.  Too busy to post much, but you all just want the pictures anyway!  You'll see that Zain has been busy practicing some new skills.

Zain's second swim

Grandma Shirley and Grandpa and the "farm cousins"

The attempted cousin picture - it didn't get much better than this  :-)

Meeting Cousin Jen and Uncle Barry

Zain and his "Harley uncles", Terry and Barry

Very popular with 5-year-old girls

Added to his repertoire this week - grabbing the toes!

Meeting Uncle Doug

A Doug hug

Hanging with Grammy

Flying with Mommy

Another new skill - fist eating

An early tripod sit

Looks pleased with himself, yes?  (Always good to have the camera handy...)



Zain has become much more adept at grabbing things recently, sometimes lots of things at once

And big things, too!

Merry Christmas!
