My boys are growing up so fast. It's a love/hate relationship really. Today they went to a birthday party where they played with like this play-doh sand stuff and then had snacks and cupcakes. They looked so big playing and eating and yet they were the youngest of the group!
It was such a joy to be invited to a little party. All of the kids were from our ward but I can't tell you how much it meant to me to be invited even though I'm just a young mom. We had a blast! I never realize how much I need human interaction until I'm with other adults... until suddenly I realize I'm talking everyone's ear off and saying stupid things, haha!
We've also started a play group on Tuesday mornings with some of my local friends with kids. We've only done it a few times but this last time we went to Smoot Park. I love that park, it's so fun and shaded and I feel like the boys have mastered it so I'm not running around like crazy to keep the boys from falling.
They've even mastered the slide climbing trick! Smoot Park also has a long creek running through it, and one time when Brian was with us he took the boys in it..... you know what that means, because now that's all they want to do. Which would be fine if it didn't have huge rocks, deep sides, and there were more than one mom.
And now it's time for....!!
TWIN SPOTLIGHT
Mr. Crew:
- Crew still loves his binkies. I try to hide them but he always has at least 2 with him. Obsessed.
- Loves to be chased! He will scream and laugh and would probably let you chase him until he passed out.
- Super cuddly, gives the best loves.
- Prefers women over men.
- Is 3/4 of an inch taller than Finn.
- Picky eater, loves his carbs, but is getting better with fruit!
- Loves shoes- he will bring me his shoes just to wear inside the house, and will sometimes bring mine or Brian's shoes and try to put them on our feet.
- Loves to look at himself in the mirror, he will just coo and laugh for forever!
- Finn is my big eater who will eat just about anything, and in doing so, weighs more than Crew.
- Prefers men over women, especially daddy.
- Loves his blanket! He has to go everywhere with it. One day when we came back from the park I decided to give them a bath. It had been kind of a rough morning so he was struggling and wanted his blanket... so much so that he would not let go of it when I put him in the bath tub.
- Loves anything electronic. Oh, and prefers the Ipad over Brian. Brian is not pleased.
- Has ATTITUDE. We are in the stages of tantrums all the time!
- Is a total goofball, loves playing and teasing and wrestling brother.
- Loves to dance! Both Crew and Finn have the best dance moves. We have way too many videos.
- Finn will scowl when bad guys come on the TV, it's hilarious.
They are the best of friends and they make me laugh every day.
I love you boys!
