The boys hanging out!

Here are some recent videos of the boys hanging out. They are starting to play more and more together and it is so very sweet. Although sometimes Athen gets a little bit too rough as you can see.


Athen has decided that he wants to name the baby Fuzzy. This use to be the nickname he used for Maximo. He told me that he will call Maximo, Max or Maximo for now on and the baby can have Fuzzy. Before bed tonight he even kissed my belly and said goodnight Fuzzy, I love you. I'm hoping he is not too disappointed when he realizes we aren't going to name him Fuzzy. He also is really into putting balls in his stomach and saying he has a baby in his belly. Athen is constantly saying funny things, today I overheard him talking to one of his cars and he said, "I've told you 100 times, I shouldn't have to tell you again." Hmm, makes me really think about my parenting :) I'm always impressed with everything he is learning. This week he told me all the days of the week and which days were the weekend. He almost knows all of his months, he just gets October, November and December mixed up. He's learning so much at school! I love his school and I am so sad he won't be able to go there next year. Maximo is trying sooo hard to talk. It's so sad but so sweet. He mumbles and tries to tell me stuff all the time. He is really into tattling on Athen and pointing at him when he's tattling. He absolutely loves to read. He is so excited about reading that he will bring a book to you, sit on your lap, let you read about 3/4 of the book, then he runs as fast as he can to get another book. He will follow me around all day with a book in his hand mumbling and pointing at the book. Most days we make it through every single book on their bookshelf atleast 2 times, sometimes 3 times. I have to remind myself how great it is that they both love to read.
