Cute things that lil Steven can do!

I am amazed at the learning curve of a child who is only 17 months old. Lil Steven learns how to do things so fast. He is saying more words like dog, and ruff (for what the dog says). He can also say fan, light, all done, and possibly flag. He was so cute today he was walking around with a squirt bottle full of water, pointing it at things and was making the sound the squirt bottle makes when you squeeze it. I just had to laugh. It was seriously funny. He is soooo smart. Maybe that is just because he is my child. Nathaniel now only seems happy if he is sitting up or on the go with me. He wants to see and be in all the action. He just doesn't slow down.

I know I have my hands full with both of them but I love this age when Lil Steven can give me hugs and kisses, and can fold his arms when we sit down to eat and then claps when we say amen. I could do without losing my toilet paper being unwound on the floor but they are both amazing children.

Nathaniel rolling over.

Nathaniel really can roll over, I'm not just saying it. He pops over now before I even realize that he has.

Little Steven Folding his arms

Little Steven has picked up a great habit. He can now fold his arms. He does it when we sit down to eat, and does it of course several times throughout the meal without being asked. We are very glad that he has started to do this. He can also put his shoes away in their box, loves to help Nathaniel by "giving" him his pacifier, and is very good at turning on and off the light switch.

Stacking sippees

I thought this was hilarious. I was trying to get Little Steven to show you how he can fold his arms but he just wanted to stack his sippee cups. This is a new thing in our house.

Radio Flyer Wagon

Daddy got our Radio Flyer wagon put together and took the boys for a little spin. Little Steven loves being pulled around and we can fit both of them just right. Little Steven and Nathaniel are outdoor boys. They could both be upset and fussy but as soon as we are outside all is well and they don't want to go back in.

Nathaniel is growing up! 5 months old!

I think it is so amazing how old Nathaniel is looking these days. He is wanting to sit up and be right in the middle of the action. He does not want to lay down anymore. He rolls over really well and has the best smile. However when I try to take his picture he instantly stops smiling when the flash goes off. He weighs 16 lbs now and is learning things so fast. It was so funny the other day, Little Steven saw Nathaniel coughing and so he started to cough. Copy catting will be a big thing in our house.
