Wanted to post a few more pictures and tell a cool story about Mazaryk. We've been playing with his new alphabet puzzle for a few days, and he's starting to really learn a lot from it. He's pretty much got the hang of getting the pieces to fit right, but I was suprized today when he first started putting the pieces in the right letter without being told. Soon after, he was looking at the "W" and before he put it on the board he turned it upside down, and pointed at the "M" that was already on the board. Shortly after that, he grabbed the "T" and said "T"! We've been saying the names of the letters each time we play with them, but I really got excited by all the new stuff all at one time! He also said "Q" a little later. Now if we can just get him to stop trying to force the pieces in with his fist when he gets frustrated!

There's also a cute picture of Tamara and Mazaryk riding on his new bike on our deck.
