Brothers Encourage

Summer is upon us and we couldn't be more excited!  We have big plans to fill these warm summer months including-swimming, vacations, family photos, yard work and lots of grilling! We are all loving our new house that has enough space to spread out and enough yard to run around and wear us out.

The boys are growing like weeds.  Bridger is getting the potty training thing down and after a few completely accident-free days I feel like we are finally headed in the right direction.  Big news for us after what has felt like an incredibly long process.  (Note to self:  Superhero underwear is very motivating for 2 year old boys.)

Dawson is learning to crawl.  I am unprepared for his mobility but I love watching how proud he is of himself.  He has perfected his sit, roll and scoot to get to whatever it is he wants and will likely be crawling within the week.  He gets on his knees, he grunts, and it is oh so adorable.

This morning Dawson was focusing really hard on crawling to my lens cover...a grand prize for an 8 month old.  Bridger was watching on and laid down next to him to provide some words of encouragement.  He quietly said, "C'mon Daws. You can do it."  and my heart melted as I watched on. These simple moments are the ones that make the hard ones worth it.
