5 things my man children are doing these days
Luke
5 months
1. Got his first TWO bottom teeth coming in (noticed it on Sunday the 10th of January.)
2. Loves to be cuddled by Isaac
3. When he cries, he gives you this look like he got his feelings hurt. When Penn is talking too loud, he cries instantly.
4. Has fuzzy hair that keeps growing and has not started to fall out yet (about 2 inches of fluffy fuzz)
5. Pushes up when he is on his belly
Penn
18 months
1. When you go to get him out of his crib in the morning, he raises his eyebrows, hides under his silky blue blanky and YELLS: "NNNNOOO DADDY!!" If I try to get him out of bed he will just lay there like he is thinking to himself: ""I'm waiting for the king!"
2. Loves to run as fast as he can as soon as he gets out of the bath. Think Tom Petty "i'm free....."
3. Anything electronic he calls "i pod!" He says ipod whenever my phone rings. He loves and I mean LOVES anything TRAVEL SIZE. It is RIDICULOUS!
4. Gargles every time he gets a drink of water (which ultimately ends up on his shirt) then laughs hysterically.
5. He is extremely passionate- about EVERYTHING. If he laughs it fills the whole room, if he's angry he YELLS AND JABBERS. I think whatever he sets his mind to- he'll get in life. He absolutely despises cuddling, reading stories & getting sung to- absolutely not his kind of bonding.
6. I didn' t think he liked me much until I tried to leave him in nursery. Oh the waterworks....
Isaac
4.8 years old
1 Mr. Obedient. He doesn't argue and is easily persuaded.
2. Is almost always singing a song from scripture scouts or colors he has learned.
3. Faithfully waits for Fredrick the treat fairy every night. (Fredrick brings treats and leaves them at the door if all toys are picked up before dad gets home.) its one of my new gimmicks thats actually working well. If he's dragging his feet, I just look out the window and say- ah, looks like Fredricks at Marselas house- better HURRY! Ha ha, I LOVE BEING THE MOM.
4. Has become a homebody- a phrase i'd never thought i'd use for a boy like him.
5. Is suprisingly a good helper- he will help load the dishwasher- put the clothes and soap in the washer and is happy to do so.
And one last thing- if Penn wants to kiss his brother- he's going to be passionate about it!
How cute are these two?

You and Brian make the most beautiful boys on the planet.
Im sooooo doing the treat fairy. You have the best tactics.
It's just too bad that the Smith's have nooo personality... ;)

Passionate Penn- Oh, he just makes me smile!
