Bentley.
Bentley is now 28 1/2 months old. He loves to play in the pool, but unless it is a hot tub he is always "coed". This means he gets in and out of the water a lot. He also loves to go to his friends' houses to play and can now say all of his friends' names. He also likes to point out their mommies and daddies while we are at church.
He has started crawling out of his crib. This means that there have been many naptimes spent getting in and out, playing with toys, giving his brother toys to play with, etc. So not only is he skipping his nap, he plays with Gaige so that Gaige misses his nap too. This stresses their mommy out!
He and Gaige play together a lot. They like to wrestle, jump on the couch, play with their trains, talk underneath the door and play peek a boo.
Bentley loves pirates. He sees pirates and pirate ships every where we go. He also breaks into his own rendition of the pirate song too. "Yo ho pirates me! Arrrr!"

Gaige.
He is now 16 months old. Gaige loves to do whatever his brother is doing. Last night at dinner they were sitting across from each other at their little table and Bentley started shaking his head. Then Gaige followed and they sat there for several minutes shaking their heads back and forth giggling. My dad said that I have a 2 year old and a want to be 2 year old, that's hard! Gaige gets frustrated when he can't do all of the things his brother can, but he sure is trying hard. And he thinks every thing his brother does is great.
Gaige loves to run around naked. As soon as he gets out of the tub he tries to run. And to tell you the truth, I let him because he has to be the cutest naked baby ever! His legs and bottom are so plump it is adorable when he runs around!
Gaige has been very cuddly lately and will sit on my lap to watch a movie so he can cuddle with his blanky, monkey and suck his thumb. I'm sure he will soon grow out of his cuddly baby stage so I am trying to get as much of his loves while I possibly can.
Gaige's answer to almost everything is "Yaaaaaa!" It is too cute when he pairs it with his irresistable dimples. He will walk around saying "ah ah ah" if he wants his monkey. He is at the mischevious age where he knows what he is doing is naughty and smiles and runs away.

7 people love me:
those boys are adorable! it must be so fun for them to have each other to play with.
They sound like such cute sweethearts. Naptimes are sooo important for us mommies!
ooh I miss you guys! The boys are so grown up. It made me laugh that Gaige is 26 and Bentley 25 pounds, sweet. YAY for big second kids, they are so content.
Cute, cute boys. Have you heard about the 'crib tent'? They sell them at Babies R Us & its totally a cage for your child. Our Jake has used his since 18 months old. This probably seems cruel, but they can't get out of bed after being zipped in.
i can't believe how close they are in size! and naptimes... they are sent by the gods. what have we done wrong to deserve a disturbed naptime? wwwwwhhhhhyyyyyyyyy????
What crack up! I loved reading this and hearing what your boys are doing. They are both really cute kids. We sure love living near your guys!
Oh your boys are so cute. I got your sweet letter the other day. Thank you- we totally loved seeing you guys. I wish you were here for our big pirate party this weekend for the boys' fourth b-day. Bentley would have a blast! My boys totally went through the no nap/ play phase too..eventually they would fall asleep on the floor. After a while the whole "climbing out of my crib" bit lost its appeal and they stopped doing it. Hopefully it will work that way for you too. Tired boys are NOT fun boys! Love you!!
