Very Busy Boys

Eli and Micah would like to thank Mrs. Jenifer (and her girls) for introducing them to stickers! Eli and Micah cannot get enough of playing with stickers. It actually works out pretty well for us, too. We take stickers to church with us every week and it buys us a few relatively quiet minutes during the message. As I was packing the church toy bag last weekend, the boys found their stickers from the week before. They quickly took off all of the stickers from the paper and put them on their legs! They were so interested that it kept them busy for almost 45 minutes!

Today, I was on the phone and Paul was making dinner. The boys took up residence in their play castle outside. (We were taking advantage of the cooler weather brought to us by Hurricane Alex.) By the time I got over to see what exactly they were doing, they were covered in dirt! Here's Eli saying, "hands" and Micah filling the slide with dirt.

I took several more pictures of them playing in the dirt and getting more and more dirty! It started with just dirt on the arms and hands. The dirt quickly spread down their legs, in their hair, and on Micah's face. Needless to say, they were stripped to diapers when they came inside and had baths right after dinner.
