They're growing up.

Ry is 13 months old now and he's becoming a thinking and interactive little boy. For months now, it's been practically impossible to change his diaper... he bucks and rolls and is just a little brat. Well, today at school he was getting his diaper changed and his teacher, Ruth, said, "Ryan you lay still and look into my eyes". Ryan put his little finger in Ruth's face and said, "no! no! no!". Little stinker! I think he's going to be more of a character than Andrew. Ryan and that little finger of his are quite bossy. Yesterday morning he came into a group of kids at school and started wagging that finger at the kids. They all looked at him like he might be a little crazy. Ryan also barks at Andrew and points that finger at him. It's so funny. I guess nobody intimidates Ryan. He's not speaking many real words but he definitely knows how to get his point across.

Andrew has become quite the little singer. He came home from pre-school singing a new song and he signs it ALL THE TIME....

Oh the Lord is good to me
I thank the Lord
He brings me the things I need
Sunshine and apple trees
Oh the Lord is good to me.

It's so sweet to hear his little voice singing that song. He loves his brother now too. He thinks of him and asks where he is, he likes to play with Ryan, and he shares with him when he has good snacks. It melts my heart to see them together.

I love my boys!
