Aunt Carol bought the boys these chairs last year. They love to sit in them and "read" their books. They know which chair is theirs and Brent has even pointed to his name, as if reading it, and announced that it says "BRENT JONES." This is how I found them one evening after getting ready for bed.
There are certain things that I just don't let the boys eat on their own. Oatmeal and Chocolate Pudding top the list. Seems that more ends up on the carpet than in their mouths. I decided that I need to let them do it. How else will they learn right? Turns out Brent is really good at it and hardly makes any mess at all. Brody on the other hand... well, he really enjoyed his pudding.
We went to a Birthday Party this past Saturday at a local place called "Jumpin Jax." The boys had a great time and didn't want to leave. Brody tried to do everything that Brent was able to do. They went to bed early after all their running around... wonderful!
We started watching a friends son, David, this week because his normal sitter is out of town for a couple of weeks. David is 10 days older than Brody and is an only child for now. He was such a good boy for us. He loved following Brent around and copying whatever he did and Brent loved him doing it. David's daddy has gone for training for the past 3 weeks and is soon scheduled to leave for Iraq. His mom thought he must be missing his daddy when I told her how he kept climbing into Ben's lap all morning. This was the first time they met! I sure hope the next few days that we watch him go as easy as today did.
