"Everything brother can do I can do also." This seems to be the motto for HannahKate's day. HannahKate still adores her brother the most, but I can't say it is the same for Jonathan. Jonathan still prefers his alone time, but he is definitely getting better about having fun with his sister. Now please don't think we have our kids sitting down posing for pictures all day. Believe it or not, Jonathan is the one who is asking us to take all these pictures and HannahKate is always right beside him with a big "cheese" smile. Some of the best times we spend together as a family are spent at home!
Our two kids are obsessed with Giraffes right now and are constantly fighting over who gets Baby Raffi. I have become a great beggar at asking people for beanie baby giraffes they no longer need. We have a Raffi family in our home with Big Raffi, Baby Raffi, and Little Raffi. Jonathan is always drawing pictures of them and HannahKate's fascination is biting their noses.
Jonathan puts a box on his head and HannahKate has to do it as well. They are so sweet to each other when there are two of everything. I learned this lesson the hard way. No matter how old your children are, make sure you have enough to go around (no concept of sharing, just mine). This definitely eliminates a lot of the fighting and sibling rivalry.
I will always look up to you, Opa!!!
With Jonathan's onion allergy, it is definitely hard to go out to eat. Jonathan loves pizza and begged to make homemade pizza at home. We went to the grocery store together and I had Jonathan pick out the ingredients for his pizza. No help from me, this is what he wanted: carrots, broccoli, ham, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and onion free tomato sauce. And would you know, this pizza was healthy and delicious. This picture goes with the others, HannahKate always being by Jonathan's side. Also take a look at Jonathan's homemade chef's hat!!!
