the three amigos

(Luke: 7 months)

I love these three boys--they are so fun! Ty and Drew are at a point now that they will make silly noises and faces at Luke to make him laugh, and Luke thinks they are hilarious! He just giggles away at them! The other day, Corey chased the boys around our "circle" (kitchen, dining room, living room), and they were laughing and screaming while Luke sat smiling and watching from the exersaucer. There is never a dull moment!

6 months things

I found my feet

I like to sit up (but not quite on my own yet)

I started solids (and I'm messy--those are peas all over me)

bringing up boys

I love these pictures because they are such a great glimpse of what it's like bringing up boys. Boys like to see how fast they can run, who can change into their pajamas the fastest, who won, and if vegetables really do make their muscles bigger. They also like to jump off of things--steps, landings, stacked chairs at the church-wide dinner, brick walls...you name it--the higher, the better. The thought of not landing on their feet (or how a concrete sidewalk might hurt them) never crosses their minds. They are goofballs and love being silly. They like to make "mean faces," absolutely love to wrestle and be tickled, and are tender-hearted. They love their daddy and mommy, and they sure do love each other.
