Monkey Feet!

Jake has definitely inherited his Daddy's flexibility. It's all I can do to keep his feet off the table and him tipping his chair back during meal time. We have to put him in the chair up against the changing table so that if he tips his chair back he won't fall. Sheesh! Here he is grabbing his sippy cup with his feet and bringing it to his mouth for a drink. I should make him wash both his hands and his feet before meal time from now on.

Wordless Wednesday!

I Love This Kid!

As a mother and a Disney fan, I couldn't be prouder..... :)

Do you think he's trying to suck up and get on my good side?

More Flowers!

Brian and the boys are on a roll with getting me flowers. :) I must be doing something right! Brian and Zack went to the store and when I opened the garage door to help them in, Zack had flowers in his hands...which he threw to the floor with a big splat so the could use his hands to walk up the stairs. *L* Once he got in, he grabbed the flowers again and said, "Here Mommy!" but wouldn't actually give them to me. I think he was playing keep-away. *L*

And here are some pictures I took of them once they were in their vase.

I love tulips!

And here is a Rose from my backyard that is about done.

My Hydrangea.

This is the rose I got from the restaurant that we at at on Mother's Day. Taken at night.

And during the day.

Buddies

In the past when people have asked me if the boys are"close" or "best friends" because they are twins I'd always respond with a quick "NO!" They never played together and never laughed together. They always played on different sides of the room with different toys and if one decided to venture over to check out what the other was doing, it always ended in a big fight. It was like they were enemies and barely knew the other existed. Recently, and to my delight, things have started to change. Today they play nicely together, hold hands, hug, share, give each other toys, feed each other snacks, comfort each other when the other one is hurt or upset, and best of all they laugh together! I love to watch them interact with each other. I was worried it would never happen but it looks like they are becoming buddies......finally!
