Now that we have church at 9am the afternoons look a lot like this. I love that church does not interrupt Tate's afternoon nap because that means we can all take a nap and that is such a great thing.
The birthday boys this month. Even as Tate gets older, he still looks like John's "mini-me." 
This week Tate has been wanting to hold Blake a lot. It leads me to believe that Tate is figuring out this baby is not leaving and he might as well learn to deal with it. We are still working out some issues with being nice to Blake, but sometimes Tate will do the funniest things to Blake (at least it is funny to me). For example, Blake was sleeping on the couch and Tate comes up to him and yelps somewhat loudly in Blake's ear. No response from Blake. Tate does it again. Nothing. Then Tate starts flinging Blake's hand trying to wake him up. It was something to watch-the mind of a 2-year old!

One year later . . .

It usually starts off with Blake being happy. Then Tate has to reposition Blake. 
Then the crying starts and Tate fixes those tears with a nice kiss on the head.
Sometimes the kiss works, other times not. Tate's face was so cute in this picture even though it is blurry.
Tate is always a big help in the kitchen. I was making dinner and he thought the garlic and onions would be good to try. He kept saying "apples." He tried them and spit it right back out! He opted for the Valentine's day candy instead.
Yummy hearts!
The child is screaming now . . . so better end this and go make dinner.

That's a particularly nice picture of John and Tate. You've got good looking men in your life!
OK I might have to make Monday my day to kidnap them. They are so stinkin' cute!!
He definitely has been around Karrie too long if he's showing you the food in his mouth.
They are pretty adorable!
seriously could they be any cuter???? I don't think so!
Oh goodness! They are both too cute! What a good big brother Tate is!
