Brotherly Love

(This is the second of two posts today, see below for the other one)













































Our boys are so different! It's really fun seeing their personalities. 

Kyler is just chill. He's happy and he takes everyhting in and he's just chill. He is quick to smile and slow to laugh. He loves cuddles and attention and chewing on things. He enjoys watching Dainen run around too. He's wiggly and he knows how to roll over now but he doesn't choose to very often. He's just a happy little baby. Actually he's over 20 lbs now at 5 months so he's not really all that little.



Dainen is very active. He's a total sweetie and he'll tackle you without hesitation. He loves hugs, if you can catch him and he's a good big brother. He is either being a total sweetheart and giving his bother toys or handing out hugs or he's running around screaming like a banshee. He doesn't really have a middle ground.



I love both my boys so much! It's so sweet to see them interact! Ok sometimes it's not so good, like the time Dainen full on jumped over Kyler. Mostly it's good though =). Dainen is good about giving Kyler toys and saying that Kyler needs milk when he's sad. He's also been known to laugh hysterically when Kyler does something funny. It's adorable. 





 They love spending time together, it's so great to see. I pointed out to Dainen one day that Kyler was eating his socks, Dainen grinned and did it too! Silly boys =)




My favorite brother story lately was when Dainen was watching a little show in his jammies and we had just dressed Kyler for bed too. We decided to take a picture of them cause they were so cute. We put Kyler next to Dainen, paused the show, and took a few pictures. Then we went to pick up Kyler and Dainen protested saying he wanted him to stay! So they cuddled up and finished the show together! It just doesn't get sweeter than that =). We are so blessed to have such wonderful sons!






The Past Few Months

It gets really busy around here! I've been trying to simplify (aka not take on so many projects) but that still leaves me with running a household, taking care of two kids, etc etc etc. Simplifying isn't so simple. Life is good though!
        

Quinn just has a couple finals left this week and then he's on Christmas vacation!!!! I cannot even fully express how much I am looking forward to having him around more. It's going to be wonderful =).

We've had a good few months. I've thought about writting in my blog multiple times, but it never seems to happen. So I shall highlight a few things that have happened.

KYLER'S BLESSING

Kyler's blessing went really well. We had a bunch of family come and it was really special. We're lucky to have such a sweet boy join our family! He looked pretty dang cute in the little outfit I made too =).





MY BIRTHDAY

My birthday was super crappy cause Kyler had a nasty virus and we ended up spending about 3 hours at the Dr's for him. The next day was worse as I spent 7 hours in the ER with him as they ran tests. However, the day before my birthday was great! We went to the zoo and had a wonderful time! Dainen loved seeing all the animals and Kyler liked looking around.



HALLOWEEN

We had a lot of fun dressing up this year. Quinn and I went as pirates, Dainen was out parrot and Kyler our treasure map. Every pirate needs a 33 lb parrot and a 20lb map right?

Kyler is too young to really care, but Dainen had a blast getting the pumpkins and dressing up and of course he loved the candy. 


QUINN'S BIRTHDAY

This year I organized a little surprise party for Quinn. I had some of our family come over and surprise him when he got home from school and we had some cake, it was great. Then for his actual birthday we had a very fun, very cold day at the beach.
