chomp, chomp

Well, it had to happen eventually, I suppose... Zane bit me!  Twice this week.  He seemed a little taken aback when I said "Ouch!  No bite!" Then a little mad, and then a little sad and pouty.  Hopefully this isn't a new trend that we're going to have to deal with. 

It's getting rough in his mouth - as of this past Monday he's up to 12 teeth - that's 4 molars!  Hopefully we have a little break before the next set start coming in...  He is also adding to his list of words: night-night (na na), ball (baa), and some other things we can't decipher :)  He's getting really good at the sign for "milk" and used the sign for "more" unprompted for the first time yesterday morning.  After the last few weeks of the "my body" theme at school, Zane can now proudly point to his belly when you ask him to.  He's also now fascinated by belly buttons, and he gets pretty tickled when he learns that someone else has one too.

In other news, Zane got to check out lots of plant life this weekend, which is always high on his list of very exciting things.  We took him to the arboretum yesterday afternoon to check out some cherry blossoms:

And then this morning we went to the Skagit Valley tulip festival.  The ground was pretty muddy all weekend, so Zane's rain pants came in handy. ;)
