Sam and Jack are getting good at playing together.  Some games work better than others.  Here are some pics and clips from the past week.  I took a lot of pictures of them in their matching Eric Carle outfits because HOW CUTE ARE THEY???

Inevitably, I would start the camera and they would crumple into arguments and fussing.  These are the better results of filming.  They were usually playing much more enthusiastically before I could get the camera out. 
Below, Sam is sitting on Jack’s picture of Betty and Richard on a beach.  Sam moved from chewing the chalk to scribbling!  And Jack colored on the back porch by himself later.

I didn’t realize my new craft cart doubled as a metal drum set and a baby walker!

Sam is such a good walker now.  He’s always on the move too.  I have to be so vigilante with him.  
This is (one reason) why he’s not allowed in the bathroom.

Waiting for school to let out.

I don’t know what he was doing on the patio.  But he was doing this for a long time before I took out the camera.  First he put the balls in the wagon, then pushed the wagon down a level, then took the balls out . . .

When I need to contain Sam for a little bit, this is a good activity.  I wish it would cool off more though.
