Best Buddies

Joseph is fortunate to have a great group of friends here-even at the age of 2 when sharing can be a challenge (thats an understatement with him right now) and sometimes he doesn't treat his friends as nicely as he should!  Claire and Norah are two of his best buddies and normally when we ask who his friends are or what he did that day or even when Nani talks to him about his day he always seems to mention Claire and Norah first and even if we didn't see them that day he normally says that we did.  We had a photo shoot with the girls this past weekend for their upcoming birthdays and at the end got some cute ones of the three buddies.  

First I had to reminisce about them a little bit smaller...this was almost a year ago in Kemah on our way to watch the daddies race in their first triathlon together...

And this fun one was taken last week at a park-

Joseph insisted on wearing his big boy boxers (only) for most of the day at the park so I would catch him taking his pants off as he is in this picture and tell him to put them back on.  At one point he was standing by the slide taking them off and I told him, "Joseph put your pants back on" and another mother (who I didn't know) just smiled and said, "Oh, the things you hear at the park!"  We also had to document Claire's (on the left) incredible fashion sense as she put her outfit together that morning.  

 Here are the cute pictures from the girls' birthday shoot on March 17th with the three of them...

Sweet friends

 

And, Claire has a real obsession with Ella-she just loves her SO much-it is adorable!  Carrie tells me constantly about how Claire talks about her non-stop and whenever we are together she is wanting to hold her, burp her, change her, or just stare at her.  It is so sweet and she is such a great helper.
