Brotherly LOVE!!!!!

So who would have thought that Noah and Peter would LOVE, I mean truly LOVE each other as much as they do? Noah was just shy of 4 1/2 and when Peter was born and he has been smitten with him ever since. Actually his "smittenness" happened long before his birth. About one month prior to knowing I was pregnant I walked into Noah's room and he told me he had been "talkin to God" and " he said we are getting our baby", lo and behold, pregnant the next month. Then on August 16 when Noah came to the hospital to meet his brother he said "Mommy we never had a baby before, this is the best day ever"! Seriously!!!!

Sometimes I just watch them, in amazement, because they are just so happy being together. Rarely is Noah annoyed or bothered by Peter, he just wants to be with him and hug him, kiss him, love him, wrestly with him, help him do anything. And Noah is SUCH a trooper, if I ask him to do anything related to his brother, he will. His favorite activity is launching the dirty diapers down the stairs and then hauling it out to the trash! I think it is the whole idea of throwing something in the house that got him sucked into this "job". He gets really excited about "poopin in the tub", because yes, it happened again (this kid is unbelievable!). Noah doesn't freak out as much anymore about the poop in the tub, so maybe that is good?!!?!?!?!?

Sometimes they just smile at each other. Other times they play. Noah said that "this age is the best because Peter can play with me Mom"!! Noah is LOVING all the new toys at our house, since Peter is bigger and can sit up there are a few new things around (Noahs old toys) and he just LOVES to play with them!! Noah is also very excited whenever Peter does anything "new" or for the "first time". So sweet!

Sometimes just watching them be together as made every second of this all worth while. I hope to nurture and help maintain what it is that they have. I hope it NEVER ends!!! Probably changes, but never ends.

How Sweet It Is!!!
