With the baby getting bigger, i find myself sitting alot more and watching as the boys play. Coleton and Hayden are definately becoming best friends and like best friends they like the same things which can cause some difficulties! 
We have been blessed so much to have neighbors who are more then willing to give us there hand-me-down toys like a very worn cozy coup. Both boys love it but they really only play with it when the other one wants it, same thing with toy story toys, the bikes, and trains. They have gotten the art of trading down pretty good though Coleton doesnt understand what makes a good trade so i have to help.
The other day Hayden was playing with a pretend phone which at the point Coleton wanted so Coleton decided to trade him for it. Upon deciding that, he grabbed a play banana and pretend it was a phone and tried to trade Hayden for the better one. Of Course Hayden caught on that it really wasnt that cool and said "no!" (which drives Coleton crazy when Hayden says no. They will have fights yelling no at each other, it gets a little rediculous) to it but after a little help from me, Hayden was willing to give it up for another play phone. Though Coleton sometimes doesnt understood how it worked, he has been able to use trading to his benefit like when his sippy cup is out of milk and Haydens is full he will trade his milk for Haydens milk to which both boys seem to be content?? good job Coleon!Coleton is going to be moving up to sunbeams in about a month and they have been taking him the last 20 minutes in to primary to get him use to the transition and he has come to love primary and singing time! For a while, no one was aloud to sing in the house without him yelling "no more song mommy!!" but now that he realizes that its pretty cool to sing, we find him singing quite often though he never seems to know the words and constantly repeats the same line over and over but we are loving the change!
Hayden is becoming a little boy and starting to talk like crazy. Coleton was always a good little talker so when Hayden started earlier it took us off guard! He says banana, milk, daddy, apple, spider, bob, more, ruff ruff, no, Buzz, woody, Thank-you, mine, mine turn, and many others. What is different from Coleton is Hayden has his own words for things... his blanket is Benny?? and bike is but? (so when he says he wants a bike for christmas he says he wants "a but!" which sure makes everyone giggle) and there are alot of times where i find myself translating what he is saying which i find funny. Hayden loves to vaccum (with the real vaccum and it has to actually be on!) and would do it for hours if i let him. To bad he is short enough that when he pushes it around he has to tilt it back so far it doesnt pick anything up ;(They both love to get out of the house and we try to get out and go to storytime or have a playdate with someone the boys age because they are not home bodies like me!
The boys have definately been daddys boys lately which makes me feel so much better with the baby coming soon. They love when he comes home for lunch and are heart broken when they wake up to find that dad has already left for work. Coleton for quite a while was not in to hugs and definately not in to giving anyone a kiss but recently he cries when Brandon leaves without giving him a couple of each!
When Brandon is home they wrestle, jump, dance, play games, and the boys look forward to him coming home everyday. With Brandon running so much recently Coleton thinks its pretty cool to take a little run with him and after Brandons Half-maraton race where he got a medal 
Coleton wanted to run so he could get one also so after a run one night Brandon made him his own little medal which he wears quite often!Coleton is pretty facinated by the fact that i have a baby in my tummy and often wants to lay his head on my stomach to listen to her. Its pretty fun to see his face when she kicks him and how he will quickly say "baby, that is not nice to kick!" Hayden still has no clue other then the fact that he knows to say baby when he points to my stomach! Thought i would keep record of what they were up to because i would regret it later if i didnt!
