The cutest

A couple of really cute things around here lately…

1. When we got back from the lake with all the cousins, Maxwell said he wanted to “color his fingernails”. Clearly the girl cousins had been having fun painting their nails and he wanted to do it too! I volunteered to go get some blue or even orange polish for him but he said “or we could just use girl colors?!”  Pink, sparkles it was!

He even asked for a heart on his thumbs and big toenails!  🙂

2 weeks later and those sparkles are still on!

2. Last night Maxwell hit his head on the counter and was pretty upset. I got him mostly calmed down and he went and sat next to Spencer and tried to give him a little hug but, as usual, Spencer knocked him away and even accidentally hit him in the face with a train track.  I told Spencer, “We don’t hit brother. He was just trying to love on you and you need to be nice”.  I said it really more for Maxwell’s benefit obviously.  Well, Maxwell then left the room and when he came back, Spencer just stood up and walked over to him, wrapped his arms around his waist, laid his head on his chest and gave him the biggest, sweetest hug.  Maxwell and I honestly just stared at each other speechless.  I guess Spencer totally understood what happened and knew he needed to love on his big brother!!!  Awwww.

Of course, the hugging then turned into a game that really turned into wrestling!  🙂

3. This…

Best sound ever.

Make it a great day!
