We were invited to join family home evening at a neighbor's place yesterday evening. There were 4 families total, and a LOT of little kids running around. Adam got to lead the song, and then for the activity, our friend handed out 3 m&ms to everyone, to share three things about themselves, to get to know each other better. Cole shared that he flew and was a dragon and could throw fire. They asked about his hat. I don't think he's been without a hat (except for mealtimes; very respectful fellow) for the last year or so. He's a bit attached.

Adam set up his paints on the backporch and did a nice painting. His brothers were very good about not touching it. They've been into drawing with the chalk on the driveway the last week or so. Cole likes to do pictures that resemble spongebob with wings, but that he describes as dragons breathing fire.

Ben was pulling himself up today. Almost got himself on my lap as I was sitting on the couch. Andrew esp doesn't understand why Ben likes to climb on us or pinch our skin or our hair. Speaking of Andrew, he's trying the toilet thing. not quite convinced yet, but he has peed a few times, mostly at bedtime. We've yet to hit during the day yet, but he's warmed up to the idea of wearing underwear during the day, so that's progress.
