Best Friends

We are so thankful for the relationship that Benjamin and Paul share as brothers. They are self-declared best friends. A few weeks ago, I overheard this conversation, as they were sitting on the floor, with their arms around one another.

"Paul, we're best friends."

"Yeah, we best friends."

"Paul, you are my first best friend, and blankie is my second best friend. And I am your first best friend and doggie is your second best friend."

"Yeah, dat's right, Benny. We best friends."

(Blankie and doggie are their "can't go to bed without them" objects.)

I just love how well they play together, and how much they really do like to play with each other.

Painting

No new pictures to share--I haven't taken any lately. Last week, the boys were sick with a nasty cough/fever bug that's been going around. By the end of the week being cooped up in the house, I thought we were all going to lose it! This week, though, has been much better. We've had some warm weather, and even went to the park one day. Everyone is happier when we can play outside! I do have another video to share, though.

Jonathan and I don't get it, but we're glad they can make each other laugh!

Wii might be addicted!

Benjamin and Paul sword-fighting.

Only one of them is actually playing--can you guess who?

Four-year-old simile

While combing Benjamin's hair: "Mom, I'm holding as still as a dead animal."

Multiple uses for a shot glass

Paul was having problems drinking his hot chocolate from a mug yesterday. So, Jonathan found a "baby cup" for Paul. He loved it!

Cars, cars everywhere

The other day, as the boys were bathing (with their cars, of course), I realized there were car line-ups in every room of the house. They love their cars!
