Brotherly Love

First let me talk about Drew. Drew is having tantrums already. He LOVES riding in the dump truck. And when you take Drew away from something he loves, watch out. He flails, he cries. In the following video I let the camera drop for a second for whatever reason, but during that silence, that is actually Drew doing his "silent scream." That scream is when he is so upset, he just keeps inhaling and doesn't make a sound until several seconds later when he belts out a scream. Usually he only cries like that after some serious pain, like fingers getting stepped on or a major head bump, but this night, it was over the dump truck. I was talking to my Mom on the phone and giving her a blow by blow during the video.





We are in for it.

A still photo of Drew's joy in the truck.



Drew is suddenly old enough to go for a walk in the wagon with Evan.



Evan has been showing a lot more affection for his brother lately. He loves to make him smile and laugh. He hugs and kisses him, tickles him and snuggles him. That isn't to say that there aren't still shoves, head bumps and tears, but the love is starting to show.













You will notice that Evan is wearing sunglasses in the photos. He is an accessory man lately. Sunglasses, jackets and baseball caps are his thing.

This is Drew at a friend's house at a play date. He was trying to bounce on the trampoline like the big kids.



I am starting to potty train Evan and we are in the very early stages. He is pretty open to it though, so hopefully we will keep this momentum going. He went half the day today without an accident and then I let him go too long in between potty visits. He loves wearing underwear, so that is a bonus.

I hope you all have a good Thanksgiving! I will update shortly after we get back.
