Connor is lapping up his spilled milk. Such a cute little mess!

 Practicing their tricks...

Every time we go grocery shopping, Cole's main request is yogurt drinks. They love these! 

Bad things happen when I leave bags of candy on the floor. He may not look like me but he definitely had my chocolate loving genetics!

We haven't used this leash in public yet, but they love playing with it around the house. They switch positions so they can each have a turn wearing it. I'm contemplating taking it to the mall with us on our next trip. I took Connor jean shopping and every time I would be in between pairs, he would escape under the door. 

Grandma gave Cole a whole bag of box tops. He took them to school and exchanged them for some dinosaur shaped graham crackers. He was one happy boy when he got home and was so excited to show me!

Lazy day napping and watching a movie. 

We had another house showing so we went to Orange Leaf for some frozen yogurt and to kill some time. We love the cute little chairs and tables there. Cole's friend Hailey from school was also there. It was fun to see them showing each other their ice cream. :)

Connor and Cole are such awesome helpers. Cole can unload the dishwasher basically by himself; the stuff he can't put away he stacks nicely on the counter. Connor helps by handing Cole things that he can reach. I hope they still love helping when they're older!

Bingory, a mix between Bingo and Memory, has become a favorite game around here. Cyrie got it for us for Christmas and it is the one we play the most by far. I love that even Connor can play. He has even found a few matches by himself! 

 Connor grabs Cole's underwear every chance he gets! He loves to wear it and isn't happy when I pry it off of him. I'd like to say he's ready for potty training but I don't think he's quite there yet. We sit him on it quite a bit and he never does much. He likes to sit, though!

Cole is always, always singing. He sings songs he learns from school, primary songs, songs I've taught him... you name it and he sings it! I love listening to him. 

Throwing rocks in the canal at the back of the subdivision. This is the first time I let
Connor walk rather than ride in the stroller. 

We walk down to the canal at the back of the subdivision to throw rocks in. The last little part is slightly uphill. Cole loves to put his feet up and go fast! 

Cole has been dying to play in the sprinklers in the back yard. It was a little chilly, but we went out anyways. Connor doesn't mind getting wet at all. The sprinkler we had on had wiggly arms. Cole went behind it and grabbed two of them. Then he told me and Connor to come a little closer... Such a sneaky kid! 

Playing with the hose is always fun. They take turns watering the plants and trees on the side and front of the house, then they usually water the grass for a little while. 

I went to Smith's here for the first time, and I am now in love with that store! It was so clean, there was so much produce, and they had slinkies and hose sprayer attachments- two of my favorite things growing up! I grabbed a slinky for Connor's birthday and a sprayer just for the heck of it. Cole has had so much fun with it. The only downside is that he can't quite twist it by himself to change the flow of water, so I have to do it for him about every 30 seconds.
