Happy Days

We have loved the past couple of months with our little Matthew. He is a good, sweet baby who loves to be held and cuddled. But he's pretty content most of the time he's awake to lie on the floor or in his seat and watch what's going on around him. We love the smiles that come often now, and it's been fun to hear him start to make little noises and try to talk to us.
Christopher is a great big brother who watches over Matthew when I have to leave the room. He's at a fun, busy stage and loves pretty much anything that involves time with Dad. He loves helping wash the cars, working in the garage, sweeping after Chris mows the lawn, and wrestling/jumping on his dad. He also loves singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" and still loves reading books. He does not love naps, so sadly my time to myself is now down to a 30 minute "quiet time."
Brooklyn is starting to talk quite a bit and copies just about everything Christopher does. She is crazy about "Ma-shew" and gives him hugs and kisses all the time. She has also become quite the storyteller which has been fun for us, and she loves to put on any item of clothing she can find. She has started to tease Christopher which is actually pretty funny to watch!
I have a bunch more pictures coming, but this is a little collection of mostly day-to-day stuff.

This is what most of Matthew's hugs from siblings look like

Evening activity on Conference Sunday (notice Chris' no-need-to-do-hair-today look). :)
