Noah

1. Tonight Daniel told Noah to brush his teeth before bed or he would get cavities. Noah asked, "Daddy, what are cavities?" Daniel said he'd tell him after he was all ready for bed. When Noah was ready for bed and he sat down with me to read a book he said, "I will read this bookw ith you Mommy and then I want Daddy to tell me all about cavities. I want to know what Daddy can tell me about cavities because I don't know what they are, so he needs to tell me." Noah is my little inquisitive man.

2. He pulled out our "Bog World" book we got from Gammie. It is a children's book about 2 1/2 feet tall and 2 feet wide with cartoon pictures of the world, the USA, maps etc. Noah and Liam opened it up and sat on top of it and pointed out stuff they saw. "Look Liam, sheep!" or "Wook! a boat!" It was beautiful.

3. During Sacrament meeting, Noah snuggled up next to Daniel and whisered in his face, "Happy Father's Day!" then hugged him. This morning he was so excited about making breakfast for Daddy before he was awake. Noah was doing a good job of helping out in the kitchen by doing the toast and setting the table. Liam got a little loud at one point and Noah fiercely whispered, "Liam! Not so loud, Daddy is sleeping! We're trying to do a surprise for Father's Day!" and Liam answered, "oh. ok."

Liam

1. He and Noah were downstairs with me while Daniel took a nap this afternoon. They started playing this game where they threw all of the couch pillows on the floor, then said, "one two three - ahhh!" and they'd fall on top of the pillows and each other. They looked like they were having so much fun. What cute little chums.

2. He passed out in the carride home from church. It is so cute to see him all dressed up in his little man suit and tie with sweaty bangs and totally unconcious. It's like a business man passed out after a long, grueling week of work coming home on an overnight flight from Europe or something ... but Liam has just barely survived 3 hours of church ... same look though.

3. Liam has been pretty excited about the glove and softballs that Noah and Daniel came home with yesterday. So excited, infact, that as Daniel was carrying a barely concious Liam inside the house from the car, on their way to put Liam down for a nap Liam slurred out, "onna catch ball ...", then he was out like a light in his crib about 30 seconds later. So cute.
