Photo Update

I don't have anything particular to write about, so I'm just going to post a few photos from the past couple weeks and a video or two.

Here's a video from 2 weeks ago. We were just playing with the boys in their room before bathtime. Nathan gets so excited when he hears music and he recently started clapping along. It's kind of his way of dancing to the music. Tyler, of course, never has any shortage of dance moves to share, so Nathan gets to see lots of demonstrations. (Please excuse the mess in their room. It always looks its worst at the end of the day.)

Feb. 4th - I took these photos of Nathan after dinner one night. He was kind of a mess because he would get really mad when I tried to wipe his face to clean it--probably because at the time I was constantly wiping his little nose due to his cold. I decided not to fight him since bathtime was approaching.

I'm always reminding Tyler to keep his letter magnets up high, and this is why...

Here's a video from that same night. Nathan was playing peek-a-boo from behind the chair and he was getting a kick out of it.

Feb. 7th - We went to the park last Saturday to let Tyler run on the trails, which he just loves to do. Nana came with us and Papa was supposed to be there, too, but he had to make an unscheduled trip back to their house to track down our house key. Tim and I both walked out of the house thinking that the other had the key. So, while the rest of us went for a walk at the park, my dear dad drove for an hour round-trip to pick up their copy of our house key and didn't utter even the slightest complaint. He'll do anything for his family (especially his girl). Thanks so much, Dad!

Feb. 10th - Pottery Barn Kids had some of their lunch bags on sale, so I let Tyler pick one for preschool. (Yes, I realize that preschool doesn't start until September, but we're planning ahead). Tyler was very certain which one he wanted and in which color. He even knew whether he wanted his name in all caps vs. first letter capitalized only. When it arrived this week, he was so excited. He likes to put his water bottle in it and carry it all over the house. Here he is with it the day it arrived. He insisted that it join him on the couch while he watched a show before naptime.
