Little Moments here and there

Captured on camera through the week...


      Caleb, quietly reading in Lucas' room while Lucas naps (yeah, that is a bib. What Lucas has, so must C)                             

Lucas so happy and smiling in the baby born

Caleb holding Lucas' hand while getting his diaper changed

The boys all ready for church in their matching outfits (thanks nani!)

Caleb giving Lucas his giraffe

Not quite understanding that Lucas can't hold it yet :)

Reading some more...

Lucas lovn on his hands

Love those toes!

How Lucas likes to fall asleep (playing and twisting his hands around, so sweet) Oh how I love it when he does this while I rock him in my arms. I'll forever hold this near my heart.

A sunny day, Caleb playing outside while Lucas and I were warm and cozy inside

Still napping good for mama in the afternoon (what am I going to do without that swaddle for your 1-4/5pm nap!)

Watching the lamb and playing with your hand

Yum! You sure do love your hands Lucas.

My sweet little baby boy!

A quiet moment for mama. Both boys happily entertained :)

Besides your hands, you also love your dino toy.

To my two sweet boys. Most days, you leave mama completely exhausted! Taming the toddler tantrums, changing dirty diapers, fixing meals for the toddler, nursing my sweet baby boy (which I do so cherish), doing loads of laundry and picking up toys all over the floor, going to playgroups, putting you both down for naps and bed, making dinner, cleaning dinner....by the end of the day your dad and I are completely pooped!
But for every smile that I witness, every cuddle and sweet baby breath that I hear as I hold you close. For every hug after the storm, every laugh and coo, all those dimply smiles, and sweet baby giggles. For all those days when naps align and mama gets one in too, and for the days when we're all out of sorts and melt downs are common place. When I have two babies crying at once, and on those wonderful days when both of you are happy and smiley. For the days when I'm just trying to make it through, and for the days when I am cherishing and peacefully watching both my boys play. For the look in your eyes as you smile at each other. For those hands of yours as you hold and hug. For each and every moment we have together everyday, I am thankful. I am so Thankful for your Daddy! For he gave me you, and he keeps me calm. He teaches me patience and strength. For each and everyday, I am so thankful. Thankful for my little family of sweet boys ; )
