Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We have had a lovely holiday season thus far. Pictures of Christmas will soon be posted. There are so many who we have not had the pleasure of spending time with but we hope 2011 will allow us to see all those we miss dearly.

Anoush shares with Oliver

Anoush shows Oliver her pink purse

Today, I am Mr. Mom as Tera is off to Norwich, England for the BAICE Conference. Anoush, Oliver and I are enjoying a nice day. The picture is showing Anoush insisting Oliver wants to play with her pink purse. Oliver was not overly excited but it is good Anoush is attempting to share.

Tea Party Discussion

Anoush and I play tea set given to us by Narine Tadevosyan. Over cups of fake tea and fictions chocolate cake, Anoush loves to share her new words. Tonight’s words are the male and female anatomy descriptors coupled with bodily functions that she understands well. I know she is experimenting but I cannot help to giggle as she is so darn cute!

Tea anyone?

Facebook Photos Updated

The Facebook Photos on this site have been update. As many of you know, it is easier to update Facebook than it is to update J16. However, we’ve imported the photos of Anoush and Oliver for those who do not use Facebook.

Here is the latest album of the kids.

Just a few hours after birth...we need to get this fellow a blue hat! The next morning - all Anoush wanted to do was hold him!  (She's trying to say 'cheese') Our yet-unnamed Baby Boy Sprague Anoush observing a diaper change Sleepy but proud Mamma

Anoush, Bringing Home the Groceries

This is great fun for Anoush. She can move almost all the groceries we bring home from the back door to the kitchen.  She impresses us with her knowledge of the food as she picks up each package. Enjoy!

New Pictures

For those of you who are not Facebook Users, we’ve imported the photos here for you to see. Click this link to see the new pictures. Enjoy!

Tera’s Facebook Photos Added

Tonight, I added Tera’s Facebook photos.  Go to the Facebook Photo page to see them.  There are some great ones of Anoush!

Sorry, they are not easy to navigate yet.  I hope to have some time this summer to improve that but until them, use your ‘middle click’ to view the pictures in a new window or tab.

Experiment with Giggling

Videos

This is a short video of Anoush chatting away. Who knows if she understands but it was a cute minute and a half.



Terra has started turning Anoush around in the sling as Anoush has developed enough strength in her neck to control her head. This is an example of Terra cooking dinner with her miniature sized helper.



This video is a bit old and taken before we left for Armenia. Anoush was at most 9 pounds at the time. She was just starting to smile and respond. She really responded to the movement and music.
