Tiberias now picks on Luke. Teases him and sometimes tries to hurt him.
Sometimes Luke squishes (whole body) Tiberias though and I have to tell him to let Ty up because he's whining for help.
Luke loves singing now. He sings when he's on the toilet or laying in bed trying to get sleepy at night. He knows the words to primary songs and it's so cute.
Tiberias has an interest in conducting music. At church he mimics the chorister in sacrament meeting. So cute! I have an interest in conducting myself. I plan to learn sometime soon...when I find the time.
Tiberias is showing some desire for independence. He tries to get his shirt off by himself or put on his own shoe. He cannot successfully do these things but he gets frustrated if I try to help him sometimes.
Tiberias is now obsessed with books. His absolute favorite book is "See How I Grow"by Angela Wilkes. It shows a baby new born and shows pictures every few months as she gets bigger and learns new things. I think he is fascinated with tiny babies now. But I'm not ready to have baby #3 yet.

My Boys
A few weeks ago Tiberias did not want to sit and be read to. Now he loves books! But he is very picky. He wants the same book read over and over again. And his favorite changes often.
He tries to recite the ABC's. He says "Ah, ah, ee" and stuff like that but he makes it sound like Luke and I do when reciting the alphabet. It is obvious what he is trying to do.
This morning the boys actually slept in until 7am. I got up and showered and the boys were still in bed. But I heard Tiberias doing his alphabet bit. I walked in and found Luke awake in bed and Tiberias underneath the bed. lol. He is a funny boy.
Both boys loved having Abigail visit. She was here with us for about 6 weeks! Inbetween school semesters she came to visit us and help us with the boys.
Tiberias took a few weeks to warm up to her. He still warms up quickly for men but not for women/girls.
By the time Abi left us she was part of the family. Both boys were attached to her like they would be to a live-in nanny. She played with them while I cleaned. She watched them so Sterling and I could go on dates or shopping without the boys.
And we all went on trips together and saw some amazing things.
Lachoneus was doing great with his potty training but then we went on vacation for a whole week. Most of those days we had him in a pullup most of the day because toilet use you often have to pay for and they are not always around. So now he's not going well potty training. So I found a great incentive. Stephanie gave us a Buzz Lightyear costume that fits Tiberias. Luke wore it a few times and it is ripping because of that. I won't allow Luke to put it on because I don't want it to be garbage. So I told Luke that if he can go a whole day with dry underwear I will start making him a Buzz Lightyear costume. Every day that he has no accidents I will work a little on making his costume. I am not buying a pattern or new material. I am not spending money to make it. I know he will be happy with it however it turns out.
We have this white karate outfit that was handed down and is a bit too big for him. That will be my basis for the costume.
Luke likes to sing now. Tiberias still loves music! Luke only likes to hear music for a little while.
Tiberias likes dancing...Luke still does not.
Luke would watch movies all day if I let him. Tiberias will not watch tv UNLESS it is Classical Baby dvds. He loves those...so does Luke.
Luke's favorite colors and red and green. Sometimes he says otherwise but mostly he says "red and green." The movies he watches most often are #1 "Monster's Inc", "Despicable Me", "Wallace and Gromit" (the moon episode). He also likes WallE.
Tiberias has recently become a climber. He wants to climb up on the Little Tikes car roof, counter tops, Ster's bicycle chained up in the front yard, etc.
Tiberias is still a healthy eater. He loves vegetables (especially potatoes). Does not like white bread.
Luke still is picky. Ty will often eat all the food on his plate and half of Luke's too. Luke doesn't care because he doesn't want to eat it unless it's a sandwich (Nutella, PB & J or Honey), macaroni and cheese, chocolate muffins or sugar filled anything almost.
