Well, we are hanging tough here at the Bates' casa! We are a little exhausted overall, but things seem to get easier each week with adjusting to three kiddos under the age of two under the same roof! Matthew and Caleb continue to love their brother and show a genuine concern for him (always ask for him when they get up from naps, worry about feeding Luke and have tried to share their animal crackers with him multiple times, and always try to put his pacifier back when it falls out of his mouth). I have caught them back near Luke's crib shooshing each other and saying "baby Luke..sleep..shooosh!" Of course, by this point, one of them has usually woken Luke up, but that's beside the point! We are working on teaching the twins to be more gentle with Luke, but that hasn't really happened yet! I'm sure they will learn with time, or maybe Luke will just have to be a really tough little brother! Below are a few fun videos of the boys. I am way behind on blogging (hmmm, wonder why?!) so will try to update the blog soon with pics from the last few weeks as well as some videos that Tim took on his camera.This first video below is of Caleb and is really cute...in the middle of telling us about his basketball, our coffee machine (which is really loud) started to go off signaling the coffee was ready. Caleb heard it and that's why he starts saying "hot, hot, hot!"
One of our favorite things to do late in the day to get some energy out is to have a little "dance party!" We turn on Tim's ipod and dance with the boys. They both love dancing, but Matthew really likes it and takes after his daddy with good footwork...! This video is Chooch's first debut dance movie!
