Oh, Brothers!

We've had a few spring-like days lately so we've been able to spend more time outside. We took a walk/bike ride to the frog pond. It was still 95% frozen but the boys were able to throw in a couple rocks right at the shore line. The boys are still very into sports - both outside and in the basement. We play a lot of hockey, basketball (running and throwing a small ball into an ottoman in the basement), t-ball, and soccer. Shadow boxing is also a "favorite" pastime. We know we shouldn't encourage it, but it is so funny to watch. Alex is the one that usually initiates it with an air punch. We had a 60 degree day this week and of course, the ice cream truck came by. Alex was still napping but Will did his ice cream dance at the end of the driveway to flag them down and got a treat.

We are in the process of getting things ready for Alex to move out of his toddler bed and into his big boy bed.  While in Florida, he slept on a twin mattress without any problems.  At Grann's last weekend, he was in a twin bed as well and slept great.  On Wednesday, he and Will were playing in his room.  He hopped up onto the lower bunk.  Will brought him big lovey and he fell asleep and ended up napping there for about 2 hours.  Today, he brought his blanket and lovey into Will's room at nap time again.  We think he's ready!
