First of all, they are obsessed with their new cousin baby Will. They ask about him all the time and are wanting Mommy and Daddy to swaddle them (I think there's a little jealousy about a new baby in the family). It's so funny when a 3 year old brings you his blanket and says "Mommy, swaddle me". It cracks us up.
Tonight at dinner, Ethan asked for more milk, so I got it for him. He then said "thank you precious Mommy". Jason and I burst out laughing...Jason calls me "precious" when he's teasing me.
Today the boys also got their first pet...a goldfish that they've named Otto. We have a book called Fish Out of Water where the main character is a goldfish named Otto. John and Ethan have been mesmerized watching Otto swim around his bowl and "hide" in his pirate house. After dinner, I was doing the dishes and John dumped the rest of his milk into Otto's bowl. Otto had a near death experience, but we were able to quickly change out the water and he seems to be doing fine. When we asked John why he did it, he said "Otto needs strong bones and muscles", which is what we always tell them to get them to drink all their milk. It was so cute!
Here they are with Otto (which they also call their "wishie"):
