Fun Saturday

We babysat Ronan's friend Miles on Saturday to help his parents out for a few hours. It had been awhile since Miles had been to our house, and he kept asking, "Where is your baby?". He must have thought that Griffin looked too big to be the baby since he is now walking and playing with toys. Miles has a brother who is 6 months old, so he is still a baby (:

The kids played really well together. At first, Griffin and Miles were interested in the same toys and stuck together, but after awhile Ronan got Miles to play builder with him.

I just thought these two pictures were cute.

Above: Ronan is sharing his snack with Griffin. I'm sure I didn't let Ronan eat Cheetos when he was 13 months old, but most of us relax a little with our second child, right? I can try to blame it on their Daddy, but every once in awhile I just can't resist eating them too (:

Below: I noticed in this picture just how much our boys resemble one another. Their expressions are so similar here!

Here is Ronan putting the finishing touches on his house made of Lincoln Logs. We have had the Lincoln Logs for over a year, but he just recently started showing interest in them. Josh has been showing him how to build things using the doors and windows, and Ronan has really picked it up. He only needed my help a few times with this one! We learned quickly that Griffin thought we were building towers for him to knock down, so we moved to higher ground.

In the evening, Josh's parents watched our boys so we could go on a date. It's always refreshing to spend time together when we can have uninterrupted conversation and reconnect. We had a really nice time.
