why do birds suddenly appear?

Raphael is growing up! In the past two months, we have moved into a new appartment, had a lil family vacation to newport/ lincoln city, made friends with a stray cat, gone to the zoo, and of course many trips to the park. Raphael is now sleeping through the night in his crib. he learned to brush his 4 teeth, take his shoes off, and a few sign language words. he's been trying to kiss me on the cheek. He loves to watch sesame street in the morning, his favorite is elmo! he has a favorite hat, which he HAS to wear to go out. He is obssesed with hot wheel cars, trucks and monstertrucks (just cars in general) His mini piano is entertaining too. The zoo was very crowded, but that didn't stop us from seeing the monkeys, which happens to be raphaels favorite animal next to the cat. He did pet a dog though....not his favorite. He is a wonderful, happy, beautiful littleboy. as each day goes by he is looking like his dad more and more everyday. We are still working on spanish words...so far no luck, but there is no rush. i could go on and on about how great he is, but i think i'll stop here for now.....enjoy the pictures ;)
