Bath time is so much fun! The other night, Luke decided to go bobbing for rubber ducks during their bath. I couldn't see what he was doing at first, but he kept ducking down and popping back up, laughing, and with his face dripping wet. And then he came back up with a duck in his mouth. He took it out and quacked. They have quite a few rubber ducks and Luke loves to play with them and quack. He doesn't just quack at the neighbor's dogs... Later on, after I had gotten them cleaned up, Brendan apparently decided that I hadn't done a good enough job on Luke's hair. He took the wash mitt, dipped it in the water, and wiped off Luke's head. Then he did it again several times more.
Brendan is becoming a wonderful helper to me. Today, while I was folding towels, he came over and asked for the pile of napkins. I knew that he knew where the napkins belonged, so I gave them to him and asked him to put them away. When he came back, I handed him a pile of dish cloths. He said "thank you" and happily walked off. After he was done with the dish cloths, I gave him the bibs. He said "thank you" again as he walked off. Thanking me for letting him help me, wow! When I got downstairs, I checked the drawers and he had gotten everything into the correct drawers! Not exactly neatly, but everything was where it belonged.
My parents came to visit for Luke's birthday and "Gamma" helped by starting to potty-train Brendan. He did it twice the first day and several more times the second day! I'm very proud of my boy.
Brendan has a new "Spiderman" trick. Our front window is very close to the floor. He gets his toes up on the sill and holds on to the top of the sash and sidles back and forth along the length of the window - probably about 9 ft.
