Our Boys Early May

We got a lot of rain around here this spring.  Which is quite unusual for Colorado.  We tried to make the best of it and get use of our rain coats and rain boots!


Jumping in this tiny puddle until there was no water left!








Then there was some fighting over the puddle that ended in crying and consoling.


One morning I came in Josh's room to find these two on the rocker.


Nathan loves to "take care" of Josh.  Rock him, hold him, pick him up (seriously...this doesn't always end well), dress him, change his diaper (again...seriously!), etc.  So sometimes it is so crazy adorable, like here.




Josh showing me "wolf".



Other times it doesn't go as well since Nathan loves being in control so much, he can get mad when someone doesn't want his help.  We're trying to teach them that helping is a very nice thing to do, but we all need to make sure the way we're trying to help is what someone is wanting.  Because "helping" becomes more about us than the person we are helping if we get mad that our help isn't being accepted.   Real help is when we are meeting someone's needs they want to be met!  Too much for a 4 year old to get?  Sometimes it's hard for us to remember!

Josh has started to sleep with Chance in his crib.  He uses him as a pillow.


Simply adorable.  And yes, he's still using a tucky.  He's pretty stubborn about having it.


Love him.
