Little Connoisseurs

Last night while watching "Deal or No Deal" there was a Toby Keith commercial. I told Christopher, "Look, it's Toby Keith!" and he said back to me, "Toby Keith!"  His daddy was really proud of him (not!).  I'd be proud if he could say Enrique Iglesias! ;)

OK, maybe he didn't really say Toby Keith, but it sure sounded like it! So he is already a connoisseur of country music. 

They are also connoisseurs of food now.  It's interesting the things they both like or only one of them likes.  Alexander likes bananas but Christopher does not.  They both love mozzarella cheese.  I was feeding them string cheese cut up until it dawned on me that it was cheaper to buy block cheese and cut it up.  They are not interested in Cheerios like most babies are - they feed them to the dog.  BTW, our dog is really enjoying getting the food that TWO babies toss on the floor.  It makes up for us having to shut his food in the laundry room so the babies don't eat it!  Alexander is not interested in animal crackers, but does consider macaroni to be gourmet fare.

They are both getting their first teeth now, so they will actually have teeth to chew with.  I noticed in the middle of the night a few days ago that Alexander's first tooth was coming in, so in the morning I checked Christopher and his was coming through too!  This is very late for my children.  Gabrielle had 7 teeth by her first birthday, I think.
