Going Hollywood

Thing One and Thing Two are going Hollywood tomorrow.

The March of Dimes doesn't have a new ambassador family yet, but they had already booked a slot on the local noon news talk show for Friday -- would we come? Sure. Would we bring the boys? Sure. Why not? How hard could that be. After all, the Humane Society comes on with animals all the time. Surely they can handle two toddlers.

In other news, things are ticking right along. Allan is getting faster and stronger every day. He's all over the place, crawling from here to there, pulling up and cruising along the chairs and tables and couch. And thinking himself quite clever for doing so. He still hasn't managed to figure out how to sit down gracefully. He mostly plops on his bottom, sometimes quite hard, but we are working on kneeling and sitting. Everything is so complicated.

Miss Julie was well-pleased with him today though because in just a week he has moved on to walking around his activity table. Apparently this is a whole other stage. What she says is so great about it is that he is moving on to the next thing all on his own, just like a regular baby. He's working his way through the usual progression -- it has just took him a little longer to get started on the right path.

We'll try to give you the full report on our television schedule. Hope their new-found fame doesn't spoil them.
