Little playmates

Something wonderful is happening. The boys are playing together, and its been three days in a row. It’s totally new to me to be able to use the bathroom, and not have kids crawling all over me, but to be happily playing in the other room. I’ve heard this would happen as they get older, but have never witnessed it yet. Here’s some of the funny stuff that’s been going on:

  • Ethan has taken upon himself to give Kevin early potty training. Whenever Ethan has to go poop, he demands that Kevin comes with him into the bathroom, shuts the door, and a poop party commences. I stand outside to listen and laugh.
  • Ethan insists that Kevin goes ‘camping’ with him, and they proceed to fill up bags of whatever the can get their hands on for their camping gear, and find some place in the house to camp out. One spot is the large cubby hole under the game shelf. I found them laying down on blankets and pillows in there. So cute.
  • Today, they went to our beloved, large tree in the backyard and dug in the dirt/rocks for a bit. Ethan gets quite upset when Kevin wants to go do something else, and at times has thrown his King Kong fits over it. It’s really funny.

This is our awesome pop up tent, (seriously, you just open it up and it flies out all by itself) and it’s their favorite hang out place this week. My mom got this tent awhile back in her camping days. She liked it so much she got two more, which are out in our garage. They rock.

So, that’s our day today. I’m moving slower today. Just seem to be pregnant tired. I am almost passed out into a nap on the couch, as I watched the boys play in the tent. Glad they are being easy today, blessing. We’ve been outside in the backyard playing in the garden and digging every day for a bit now. Trying to enjoy the weather before the impending doom of heat comes soon.
