The good

The kids are growing up. Little Miss is actually taller, as is Little Monkey. Still not toilet trained -- my fault.

Chicky is virtually talking. That's right folks, now we have 3 kids who won't shut up. The primary word is cacca!, exclamation mark included. He scrunches his eyes up when he says it. He even sings the cacca song in the car. He tries to mimic other words too. Pretty impressive for 16 months.
