Less Busy

Last week we had VBS at church and it ended up being a very busy week for all of us. So this week it is really nice to be having very laid back days. We have had very few plans this week. I don't always like that, but this week has been very nice.

Sunday night we did get together with our Bible Study group. A little over three years ago there were ten adults in this group, and no kids.

And now there are ten kids. And two more on the way!

They are such sweet little friends.

I am continually amazed at how God put this group of us together. It's such a blessing!

The rest of the week has been filled with picnics and walks, dinner with a friend one night, and lots and lots of art.

I'm so thankful to be able to spend my days with these two little monkeys.

The following few pictures are the reason I should really know better than asking Tyler to get dressed on his own.

Me: Ok Tyler, time to go put your pajamas on.
Tyler:

He played with trains, colored pictures, and yes, even went to bed this way. :-)

Me: Tyler, it's time to get ready to go. Put your shoes on please.

Tyler:

He even put a hat and tie on Carsten. Who just stands there and lets Tyler dress him however he wants.

Me: Tyler, can you run inside and get hats for both of you?

Tyler:

Fanciest little swimmer ever!

For some reason this week the boys were really into table activities that we haven't done in awhile. Carsten hadn't actually done any of these things before and he loved it all! And Tyler always loves this stuff too.

These pictures show their personalities to a "T".

Tyler loves art projects, but does them very carefully and usually manages to stay pretty clean

Carsten is less worried about staying clean. 

What a little cheeseball.
