Big Brother Love and September Afternoons

Thank goodness for cool afternoons!!!  I hope it is here to stay!!!
Since I've been staying home with Mallory during my maternity leave, I've been able to pick up Barrett from school earlier than a usual "work day".  We like to swing by Sonic for our favorite drinks (Barrett - HiC Fruit Punch / Me - diet Dr.Pepper with vanilla).  Then, we head home to enjoy the afternoon (usually playing outside with the neighbors as I rock Mallory on our front porch).
The kids were very creative in hooking 4-wheeler up to the wagon!  We just have to be careful about sharp turns and who is driving!!!!!



 
One of Mallory's favorite times to stay awake is in the late afternoons...close to bed time.  We all sit around and compete for her attention (which she loves).  Barrett is so great with her.  He will get down on the floor and talk to Mallory, rub her back, try to comfort her when she cries, and even likes to show her his toys.  Just last night, he was talking to her about how she needs to learn how to crawl!
