That is so neat that Sascha does puzzles. I think Max would try to eat one. =)
Ugh, about the climbing. =( I can't wait till Max gets over this stage. And, wow, that's really neat that she's so into taking care of the cat. Too cute! I have a friend whose daughter is a total animal lover and she was that way even from when she was really little. I bet Sascha is that way too. =) sar. >We're about to head out to Grandparentland for 10 days...so this >will be my last update for awhile. > >Sascha is a crazy climbing girl.
