Here are just a few things the boys have been doing lately. We have so much snow. I’m just surprised that there haven’t been any snow days this year . . . even the morning we woke up to 8 inches and it was still snowing. At least my boys aren’t in school yet, so we just hang out at home and avoid going out whenever possible. Grandmama took Ricky out for a sled ride the other day. They tried to get Duchess to ride along, but she preferred walking in the packed path behind the sleigh (since the snow is deeper than she is tall, she didn’t sink into the snow on the path).
I like dressing the boys alike–it makes for easy dressing decisions in the morning and they just look so cute! Here they are in an outfit they got for Christmas. For now, Ricky thinks it is fun to match Billy. However, Ricky does NOT like looking at cameras these days, so I went for both of them looking away (a photographer’s technique–or maybe it is just less hassle taking pictures this way).
Ricky enjoys watching “Go, Diego, Go” and Diego’s sidekick is Baby Jaguar. So when Ricky realized he had this stuffed jaguar toy, he dragged it around everywhere, showing “Baby Jaguar” the ropes. Here Baby Jaguar is “getting him.” Uncle Tony attached the cat to Ricky’s shirt and it wouldn’t come off. After a few minutes, I think Ricky was actually getting nervous about the situation.
There is no holding Billy back now. He’s a mover and his favorite method of transportation is cruising along furniture, walls, my legs . . . Nothing is safe from him either. He loves my measuring cups, anything with buttons, and he’s even learned how to flush the toilet! Here he got into a box of homemade pillowcases and spread them across the floor.
