Most folks pay big money and dress their children in matching outfits for a great Easter picture. This one happened last Sunday afternoon after naps (notice them both in their undershirts), with no fanfare at all - just a request to hold my brother.
...that's how my family used to be described by my then four year old son (he's the medium one, baby brother is small, daddy is big and guess who - mommy - is the girl).

I am a man of constant sorrow
Mason is slowly figuring out what this brother thing is all about. Recently he's been full of loving talk about his brother - but we're trying to figure out if it's just talk or maybe he just forgets (as he's shutting his bedroom door so Miles Avery can't enter). Most recently, Mason has wanted to help feed Miles Avery and hold him (Mason hasn't held Miles Avery since he was about a week old and that one time seemed to be enough). It's funny watching Mason navigate big brotherhood - responsibility, irritation, lack of justice and loads of fun. They chase each other around the house constantly until one or both of them end up crying.

what?! mason hasn't held miles until now??? i can't believe that. what a difference it is having a big brother i guess. ella wanted to hold evan all the time! i think its a cute picture, even if they are wearing undershirts :)
Abigail wants to hold Ava, usually multiple times a day. I guess that's the difference between girls and boys!
Definately a big difference between boys and girls! Tyler still hasn't held jackson-i mean besides that time he held his head under water but that doesn't really count. It's the best watching boys get bigger and play. We're on to wrestling now and they are adorable roling around on the ground Jackson sitting on Tyler's head and then the other way around.
I love seeing the difference between girls and boys! Also, simple outfits are the best for pics anyway. Too much fluff and their sweet faces get lost in the details. I love it.
