The way we do things around here

Lucas must be moving at all times - not a moment to loose. He won't sit still and cuddle unless he is half asleep - not even for a bottle, which he drinks hanging upside down over my arms and kicking his legs.

Soren must be wearing his "football" pants and hates to change his shirts. He still loves to play any game with balls. This week, we used my embroidery hoops as basketball hoops in the living room.

Lucas enjoys tasting everything, but definitely prefers green food like peas and green beans.

Soren enjoys eating anything sweet, and will occasionally be convinced to eat a carrot or cucumber. And he loves PBJ sandwiches.

Lucas plays with his brother by following him around the house and grabbing at all his toys. He knows which ones are supposed to be the most fun according to how much Soren plays with them. Therefore, Buzz Lightyear, Spider Man and Mcqueen are hot items - much to Soren's annoyance.

Soren plays with his brother by trying to make him laugh, either by tickling him, making funny faces or repeating something Lucas has already laughed at. Soren also loves to pull Lucas' legs or try and stop him when he is getting to close to dog food. I am predicting a couple of rough housers once Lucas can keep up with him.

Lucas loves baths and is constantly crawling into the bathroom. He fell headfirst into Soren's bath this week - fully clothed.

Soren loves to play with his Daddy and Mommy - especially if Daddy will be Bullseye or let him play with tools. And if he's not busy playing with one of his superhero action figures, than he wants to race cars.
