My Boys

Here is the source of most of my joy, anger, tears, laughter, headaches, and exhaustion. These two boys are a handful some days.

The oldest is constantly running around, bouncing, and making noise. And now he can do all that while still staring at a tablet screen. This has led to more falls (looking at the tablet while running is not safe), and tears (for both of us) than I would like to admit. It is amazing to watch him discover the different apps and watch him learn from them. He is working on letters, and numbers, matching, and puzzles. He also has his own songs and even Monsters on it, so I don't have to bring it up all the time. He doesn't throw a fit when the battery dies either; he simply goes and plugs it in excitedly; he sees it as one more thing he now gets to do.

The second sprout is a handful in that he wants to keep my hands full. It is hard to believe that he is already 7 weeks old (almost 8 weeks when this posts). He smiles and giggles, and is curious about everything. I love that I can catch him staring intently at things. There have been times when while burping him I realize he is deeply focused on my hexie quilt sitting right behind us. He is getting better at allowing me to put him down for short periods of time, so maybe my productivity will increase.
