growing boys with funny phrases

Wes is definately getting bigger, because he seems to be getting hurt more often. Just this morning at church he got his hand smashed in a play door in his room. He seems to always have some bump or scrape we haven't seen before.

He is really into reading or playing games, that is all he wants to do all day. He also started saying "Jesus" which ironically sounds a lot like when he says "zebra"

Nathan is really putting words and phrases together a lot. His memory is starting to show more now that he is able to share more through words. He will retell an episode of Bob the builder or a story from church and get just about everything right. Our new favorite phrases are "I thought to myself" and "I need a date"

Just a little over a week ago we went to Cincinnati to visit with Jenny (who was in town from Mass.), a friend from college. It was a good visit for us. Jenny had never met Nathan or Wes. This is a weird feeling, since its hard to remember what life was like before we had them.

One fun thing the boys got to do was use a slide that goes on the stairs. They spent over an hour just sliding and rolling cars down it.
