WWF rough housing

Hey friends and family,

Any time Easton sees or feels his blankie, it's an automatic reflex to suck his thumb and lay down as he asks me to "cover up". He has a unique quirk where he holds the corner (any corner) of the soft silk-like edging between his first two fingers as he rubs it with his thumb. very endearing...


Anyway, Layla thought it would be fun to turn it into a WWF smack down so she jumped on top of Easton from behind and giggled.


He had enough after only a few seconds and said, "Stop that, Layla! I don't like it." I'm really proud of him for expressing himself verbally instead of holding it in or hitting/biting as he did in the past. The twins are finally to the stage where they engage each other appropriately in the physical ways. They play and have fun bouncing off each other, wrestling around, and double-teaming me. They also give each other hugs and are gentle with each other moments later when the bell rings at the end of the round. Knowing when and how to interact together has taken months for the two of them to understand the other person's comfort level and style of play time.

Kendra discovered a park close to my work has new covering over the jungle gym section. It's already starting to get too hot in the mid-day sun for playing out in the open. Luckily the woodchips are big enough they don't get stuck in their shoes. However, they are small enough to get stuck in their diaper though. Talk about uncomfortable. Easton is still very fond of all things construction related so this new ride-on toy is right up his alley!


Kendra found the magic moment when both of the twins looked out of the tunnel holes at the same time. I can really see the differences and similarities when their face is the only thing visible.


Tomorrow morning is Kendra's last Saturday morning commitment for her women's meeting. That means i'll be on full-time daddy day care until the afternoon. After the long week of work I experienced away from Easton and Layla I can't wait to have some quality time of fun.

See you soon!
