Happy (belated) birthday!

My baby boys turned 2 on Monday. I can hardly believe it. Just yesterday, it seems I was waddling around waiting for their arrival.

John Carter
 

John, you are all boy. You love anything related to balls and sports. You have one helluva arm and Mommy and Daddy are really putting all their eggs in the "John's going to be a professional athlete" basket. You are a real daredevil and love to take flying leaps off the couch.  You love giving kissies and you are so tenderhearted.  You are my baby that still loves to snuggle. You get your feelings hurt easy and you get mad easily. You are world famous for your fits where you lay face down on the floor and scream! :) You march to your own beat and only do things on your terms. If you don't want to do it, you're not doing it.

Evan Connor


 

Evan, you are such a good kid.  You rarely ever cry, whine or get in trouble.  You are kind and are always the first one to share your toys or check on one of us when we have a boo boo or cough/sneeze. :) You love reading and literally can sit and study things for close to an hour. You are our little intellectual. We are convinced you will be a rocket scientist one day (in case the John as a professional athlete doesn't work out, we have your successfulness to fall back on).  When you do get upset, the whole house is going to know about it....your face turns red and veins pop out! You definitely look up to your big brother to see if the daredevil act he is about to commit is safe....and then you do it too. 


We love you both to pieces.  You are each so unique, but also similar in a lot of ways.  You have rocked our world by going from a family of 3 to 5, but we have loved every minute of it. I can't wait to see what the two of you grow into.  I'm looking forward to the next year to see what new boy adventures the two of you bring to our house.

Love,

Mommy
