just for James

So I haven't posted much about James lately... poor, neglected little boy. So this post is all about Jamesy-boy (as he is affectionately known in our house). James is such a sweet boy--although SO different from William. Here are a few things about James:

He loves playing with William. Whatever William does, James wants to be doing as well.He hates when William pushes his hands or tells him that he is a baby and can't play with his toys.

James loves bath time. If anyone is taking a bath he crawls in the bathroom and tries to climb in the tub. He especially loves to SPLASH. The bathroom is soaked by the time James gets out of the tub.
Clapping is another favorite pastime. I love when kids learn to clap because everything deserves a clap. He also enjoys making motor noises.

Something that I love is that he's learned to put himself down for naps. Too cute...
In the past week he's found a new favorite game. He loves to play ball. It's so exciting to him... and gives he and William something to play together.
In addition, he is wiry and can't hold still for a moment, he has a fantastic laugh, loves to be held, pushes chairs around the kitchen as training to walk, enjoys playing guitar with Dad, kisses his reflection in the mirror, sticks his tongue out, and chases us all around the house. We are so glad that he is part of our family... even if it means some sleepless nights.
