Brotherly Love!


Eli, Micah and Joshua love playing with Luke. He's getting a little too big (and wiggly!) for them to hold for very long, but they love to make him smile and giggle. Luke seems to really enjoy them, too. He is constantly looking for his big brothers if he hears their voices in the room.


 On this day, Horton the elephant had to take a bath. Joshua tends to watch the entire wash cycle when Horton is in the washing machine.  Eli (holding Joshua) and Micah decided to sit and watch, too. They were all giggling whenever they saw Horton pass the window.

Our zoo's elephant had a new baby earlier this year. On a particularly warm day, a friend and I took our kids to see the new baby.
 

The big kids got to brush the goats

 and Luke was very patient, spending the day in his car seat and stroller.
(He had just started sucking his thumb regularly before we went.)


 

At 3 months, Luke holds his head up very well and is spending more time being happy on his tummy.

Joshua cracks me up every day. On this day, he insisted on wearing his elephant costume, blowing his lip whistle and playing the maraca. 

If Joshua isn't being silly, he's often playing trains. He loves to line them all up and see how far he can drive them across the floor before the line breaks. On this day he was "counting" the trains.
