Zachary rolled over today.  He would've done it yesterday except Edwin got in his way.

Edwin is now climbing all over Daddy saying, "Daddy Ma" meaning "Daddy Milk".  He knows Mommy makes milk, but he doesn't understand that Daddy doesn't and he doesn't.

He's taken to saying "Donna Dietz" and "Dr. Dietz".  I think he got "Donna Dietz" b/c sometimes he hears me say my own name on the phone or something.  I don't know.   But "Dr. Dietz" I have no idea!  So, I said, "What about Michael?" and he replied, "Michael Dietz".  He also says "Enna Dietz" and "Reh-row Dietz".  (His pet name for himself is still Enn-nnah and for Zachary is REH-row, even though he is perfectly able to say both names when he's thinking about it.)  The stroller is "Sur-REE".  He says "Mommy work" and "Daddy work" and "Ronin work" (Robyn).  He thinks "work" means "away", I believe.  When Daddy's at work, I tell him, so he thinks everyone is "work" when they're away. He says hi on the phone like, "Hi Grindaddy" and "Hi Grammy" and "Hi Crissy" etc.  He apparently says "Mommy sleep". 

Since it's public knowledge, I can now blog this...  Michael finally got an offer for a postdoc at UPenn.  Yippee!!  And since that day in June, our lives have been upside down trying to make this transition.  So, our house has been up on the market for over a month now, so we lowered the price.  We'll see if we get a buyer soon.  Cross your fingers!
