Dirt, Legos and airplanes

We're still waiting for the warming temps to come around so we can really enjoy getting outside, but in the meantime, we'll soak in the gorgeous sunshine!
I think there will be lots of digging in our future. Thank goodness for that great big sandbox in the backyard!!!!Breven has become Noah's shadow.
Anything and everything Noah does and says, there is a little "Re-Pete" coming right behind him:)
Noah: Full of energy, words and imagination. He's just hit the point where he has discovered B will do pretty much anything he says and tries to get B to do all his chores for him. He's showing us his little stubborn, strong will a lot lately and he has been bitten by the popular boy bug...LEGOS. Its pretty much all he plays with anymore.
.
B is showing us that while he loves to imitate his really cool brother, he definitely has a mind of his own. He's more sensitive, strong willed and compassionate. I thought we'd seen strongwilled and dealt with it all before, but that was before B decided to show us how its done. He's definitely hit the "2" mark and lets us know when he doesn't want to obey and cooperate.
Our favorite things he does: He shrugs his ear and shoulder together while saying "can't" whenever he doesn't want to do something.
He just stopped saying it but he used to say "Mahmon" when he wanted you to come with him somewhere.
He loves to fill us in on how people are feeling along with some other commentory remarks: Bweven happy, Noah ky (cry), Noah trouble, Daddy happy...
And if there's ever a time when I really need some love, I can count on B. If I ever need a hug and kiss from the boys and they won't give them to me, all I need to do is act sad and B is right there to make it all better. Horrible I know, but a Mama's got to resort to all kinds of tricks to keep getting the love-they start to get stingy with their hugs and kisses. The nerve:):)
I looked over from putting something away, to see this. They were watching a far away airplane.
