boy, oh boy!

These 2 have become quite the handful. They now play together around the clock, which includes fighting together around the clock. It's so fun to see them interact, to see Henry try to protect James from anything bad ("You will get hurt" is what I hear multiple times a day), and it's even slightly funny to see James attack Henry from time to time (nothing quite like learning from your big brother and it coming back to bite him later).

I love them dearly. They are fun, handsome, silly, smart and huggable. But, boy, do I love nap time, bedtime, and alone time. This mommy-to-2-boys stuff is hard work.

I'm gonna have to say that I also find it funny when Johnny attacks the older boys. I know I shouldn't laugh but he can seriously jack his bro's, lol.

Tell me about it! I love hearing them play and laugh but I sure love when it is bedtime and I get a nice quiet house.

Oh the mixed blessings of having kids old enough to play together! It's not just 2 boys either...Kassie and Timothy also play together and fight together CONSTANTLY! And Kassie has this scream that could break glass! I'm anxious (nervous?) to see what adding a 3rd does to the dynamics!

nap time is UNFORTUNATELY over at my house, but I couldn't agree MORE, being a mommy (any type really) but ESPECIALLY to TWO boys is HARD WORK!!!!!
