Playmates

Even though February is a short month, we've been busy doing lots of stuff with friends. Maddie got in on the action, too, when we watched our friends' dog Abby this past the weekend. She's a sweet yellow lab and they played really well together... except when she tried to go near Will in the highchair or walk into the nursery, Maddie made it clear with a little growl that these are her territories, only. But, here they are being all sweet.

We played with our next door neighbor, Devin, several times this month, too. The boys are only 16 days apart, so it's been fun to watch them grow into little toddlers together. Also, it makes it really convenient when us moms have a doctor's appointment or errand to run that we can easily swap babysitting. Here they are checking out their blocks.

And of course, they spent a long time looking out the window together. I think they're ready for Spring, so they can play outside!

And here's another favorite playmate, Isaac. Will was a busy boy while I was trying to take pictures, so this was the best shot I could get of them both looking at the camera. They're six months apart, but isn't it neat they'll be in the same grade when they start school? Fun times, playing with/eating blocks again!
