these two

i feel like i leave cash and slade out of the blog a lot of times. it's not intentional, it's just that at this point in time, they are not doing a whole lot. very, very soon i will be have much more to say about them because they are oh-so-close to crawling (slade will be first, i think). i'm sure once they are mobile, the stories will be endless. especially when they are able to play with jagger. i can only imagine the mischief the boys will get into!

but anyways, i felt like i needed to dedicate a post to just them.

cash and slade do not play well together. if they are set next to each other with toys surrounding the both of them, in a very short while, cash will be crying and slade will have all toys around just him . i think slade has green eyes of envy because he instantly wants whatever cash has no matter how many other toys are offered to him. so we usually put one kid in the playpen and one kid stays out. today, they seemed to notice the division between them.

(that's crusted teether cookies on the mesh. yum!)

generally, cash winds up being the one in the playpen because he handles it better. slade may start out ok:

but soon he is doing this:

and then much crying ensues.

and this is completely unrelated to the playpen situation, but these pictures made me laugh because corey likened cash to gollum/smeagol from lord of the rings:

we hates the hobbitses! gollum, gollum

No! The hobbitses are our friends!

sneaky little hobbitses. they stole MYY PRECIOUSSS!
