A couple favorites

Here are some of the pictures we took at the fair. I loved them (mostly because of their sparkly eyes!) and thought I would share and tell a little about what each boy is doing. I think these pictures need to go down in history because I actually got Joel to look at me while I was taking a picture! That is no easy feat at our house- I think he may have had the camera in his face a few too many times!

Joel is two. Can I stop there! Just kidding. Joel is a mostly sweet boy with a strong personality. He loves his brother and attempts to help take care of him. He loves being outside and helping grandpa with the horses. He LOVES tools and helping dad fix the cars. His favortie movie is Bob the Builder. And his favorite thing to say is "Can we fix it... Yes we can!" We loves animals and can count to 14 (he gets stuck and it sounds like a broken radio!) and can say his ABC's when he wants to. He likes helping mommy fix cookies too!  He loves to jump and run. When he has to much energy we have him run around to get some of it out! So, there is a little about Joel.

Conner is 8.5 months old. He is a happy little boy (except when he is teething!) He now has 2 teeth and they are sharp! He loves to stand up! He army crawls around and tries to keep up with his big brother who is one of his favorite people! The only way we can get him to eat his food is to spoon feed him while he is standing up. He loves people and likes to be in the middle of everyone. Conner has said his first real words besides Momma and dadda -- he can say doggie which comes out sounding like ogie. But he says it everytime we see grandma and grandpas 2 dogs which he LOVES!

Its fun to see their personalities and how different and similar they are! It will be a fun next year I'm sure!
