Boy's

I need to write down what the boys are doing so that I do not forget. So for those of you that read this you might not care about this but I know that one day I will regret it if I do not write these things down. And since I am not good and putting it in their baby books, you get to hear about it.

Beau:

Started to walk at 13 months. He took his first steps at 12 months. He is still a bit unbalanced and his face is a testament to that! I guess that a beat up face comes with the falls of learning to walk. But why is it that they always land on the hardest thing around. Just the other day his face found the bed frame of Owen's bed instead of the mattress.
He tries to say hi, bye, thank you and I love you but none of them are very clear. He has the rhythm of them down. He is learning to do baby sign and will say more, eat and all done.
He has great fine motor skills. He uses his fingers to pick things up. He loves to help pick up toys and of course get all of them out. He also loves to help throw his diapers away.
He really wants to be one of the big boys. He is always tagging along. If they go down stairs he does. Of they come up stairs, he does.
He loves to play peek-a-poo and patty cake. He also loves to be tickled!

Owen:

He loves to wrestle with his little brother, who he ofter refers to as his bog brother!
He loves to play his ABC game (aka. starfall.com).
He knows his address and what city and state he lives in.
He knows his full name and yes he can say Niemantsverdriet.
He can spell Owen and no we have not started with Niemantsverdriet!
He knows all of the alphabet and can tell you every letter (not in order) and what sound it makes.
He loves to read.
He loves to pray. Tonight he thanked God for his eyes, covers, brother, mom, dad, food and fingers. He often thanks God for Jesus and taking away our sins!

I can not believe how fast my boys are growing!
