The More, the Merrier

The boys had a great time with Grandma Georgia and Aunt Mary Ellen today. James took on the role of personal trainer -- he had them doing circuits around the back yard! (Down the steps, over the bridge, up the hill, repeat, repeat...)

And then this evening Grandma Linda and Honorary Grandma Sue arrived, in preparation for the boys' birthday tomorrow. (They came to meet us at a restaurant, and they had perfect timing -- Matthew had just thrown up and gotten all cleaned up, and he was quite chipper once they got there!)

Matthew has started referring to himself in the third person sometimes -- "Maff-u turn!" [Matthew's turn], and the other night, in response to "Do you want me to help you?" was "Help me Maff-u!" It's so adorable! He also showed off his potty skills for his grandmas, of course right when he was supposed to be going to bed. He's remarkably well potty-trained when the alternative is sleeping.
