The life has somewhat returned to normal. I say this with a grain of salt, as "normal" sometimes includes waking up before 6am. But them, as they say, is the breaks.
The boys have recently learned to say "дать" (to give). As in "дать тебе печеньку?" - "shall I give you a cookie"? So now when they want something, they point and say "give", using the infinitive form. Better than nothing.
The incidents of walking, while still limited to 3-5 steps, become somewhat more frequent. At a recent Gymboree trip Alla and I noticed that the boys can now negotiate any and all obstacles there, entirely at will and without assistance. They do, also, continue to show a strong independent streak -- with little regard for the teacher's plans, Benjamin and Zev play when they want and where they want.
