No fires here, but...

We do have a
red hot firefighter ready to put out any flames:
J is really quite good at helping out when he sees a need and recognizes how he can help. He is a great cleaner and an amazing help with his little sister. He speaks to her with a soft voice and lets her get away with things he is less likely tolerate his brother doing!
Moose shirt with monkey slippers. That's how we roll.




 And if you find yourself in need a train, we have the cutest little conductor:
N loves following his older brother's lead. This was a Monday that was deemed 'hat day' and they enjoyed various activities with different hats on. It was adorable to watch N follow J's lead and the two of them have fun creating their world of imagination together.
This kid loves his tools! This is one of his favorite shirts.

 If you blink, you might just miss our 
avid crawling adventurer: 
Miss N  is in charge of whatever room she enters. She crawls with purpose and a smile. She takes what she wants and she lets you know when she wants your assistance in her adventures. She has a few drawers in the kitchen that are her go-to for maximum mess and enjoyment. I have always let my kids have at least one drawer to empty (that isn't dangerous and is easy to clean up again). Not sure if the drawer with the aluminum foil should be on the approved list...
14 months & still not walking (right on target w/what the boys did)
--but crawls & opens drawers at the speed of light!



BROS

These two have a blast.
Then they are bugging each other.
Then they are giggling.
Then they are wrestling.
Then they are singing songs.
Then they are crying.
Then they are smiling for a quick pic.

*sigh*

Some days are simultaneously wonderful & exhausting!

I love all the pics of your kids but you're really teasing me as I'm scouting the pics for sneaks of your new house! I love the chunky baseboards. And, is that a fun photo gallery on that narrow wall? House tour, please!

YES. Photo gallery on the narrow wall (idea from pinterest that I've been dying to do for over a year!) and the chunky baseboards are new per Trevor (smaller ones we put in the kitchen & bedrooms...we'll do the chunky ones in the hallway and living room). Thanks for noticing! Photo tour will be on it's way in the VERY near future. PHotos taken...working on a slide show :) JUST FOR YOU, my friend :)

Such fun pictures of your kids! I'm glad you're loving (and documenting) so many good times together. :)
