Happy Birthday Jonah and Samuel!!!!!


It's hard to believe that it has already been two whole years since we met Jonah and Samuel for the first time! I remember crying when we loaded the boys into their carseats for the ride home from the hospital since it was the first time that I had seen them together. Sammy was placed in the NICU immediately after birth and Jonah was my roommate. The hospital didn't allow us to take Jonah down to the NICU when we went to visit Sammy. So, seeing my two boys together for the first time side by side in their carseats was amazing! At two years old, the boys still share a bedroom and will not fall asleep without the other in the room. They are great friends, but very different little people! Jonah loves to cuddle and be held. He is very serious and it takes a lot to get him to laugh and be goofy. Jonah is convinced that he is three years old and is completly determined to do everything that Wyatt does. Jonah is technogically gifted like Wyatt and seems to gravitate toward toys and objects that require technical skills. He is more of a whiner than a talker, but has a mild temper compared to his brothers! He has always been smaller than Sammy, but he loves to eat food! Samuel is a social butterfly. He loves to talk and has a big vocabulary for a little guy to go with his big set of lungs! He loves to be the center of attention and acts silly and laughs at everything. Sammy is not motivated by peer pressure and is not competitive by nature, but when he gets his mind made up he wins every argument with his brothers using his size, his teeth, or his booming voice! I am so happy that our boys have developed into distinct individuals with their own personalities and can't wait to see how they change in the next year. Two years later my boys still amaze me! Happy 2nd birthday Jonah and Samuel!
