Lately this is what my kids look like. They are both heavily into teething and as you can see are using their hands as a chew toy. Sam unfortunately already has 18 teeth and is chewing his hands to pieces. The puddles of drool all over everywhere are a little dangerous (on tile) and really gross. However, Tylenol works wonders and is the only way I can salvage Sam's poor hands. I can always tell when they need more because this is what I see. You can guess what happened after I took this picture.

Reading with Daddy is always one of Sam's favorite things to do. Marie is old enough to join in the fun too. They were having so much fun reading Goodnight Gorilla this morning that I couldn't resist taking a few pictures. If Sam keeps up what he's been doing he'll be reading by the time he's 3. I really can't believe he knows his alphabet in 2 languages already. It's still a little rough but for a not yet 2 year old that's impressive. He likes to practice daily with his book and asks me to sing the alphabet song to him regularly. I'm in major shock and I'm really not sure how to keep up with this kid. He's growing up way too fast.
