This is the first day in a while that Trevor didn’t get to leave the house, not even for a quick errand. It was just me and the boys all day today while Bill and awesome friend Robert worked their tails off outside.

The boys were mostly good to me and they both had an excellent day. We are having to do more learning about sharing. Trevor is not used to Brendan cutting in on his play or trying to steal his toys. He didn’t want to share puzzles. It is good to have a twin around to learn about sharing!

Lots of energy!

Trevor did plenty of climbing today. I thought he was just trying to get up to ride the horse.

Trick riding?

Ah, motivation revealed

I got Brendan cozy for watching “The Lorax” so I could put on his PMV (speaking valve) with its oxygen adapter instead of the mist collar. He did a great job and wore it for 3hours.

They have all their tools to support Daddy’s efforts today.

This truck must need a tire rotation

After taking a nice nap with the mist collar, Brendan went back to the PMV. He wore it for 4 more hours! 7 total today! Yay Brendan!!
There are two problems with using the PMV with just the oxygen line and not the collar. One – Brendan crawling around makes the oxygen line pop off all the time. Two – Trevor wants to steal the oxygen adapter with the line on it to chew on!

Brendan napped through all the noise outside, but Trevor had a hard time. I had to hold him and rock him through much of his nap. It was not a bad thing, I enjoyed the cuddle time. When he got up, we had to go see what all the commotion was about. Something is going on at the other end of the patio!

I put some water in this sandbox again. Trevor loves it. Nice shallow dive!

We haven’t done swimming lessons but we work on some things in the bath tub. He is showing me how he can blow bubbles in the water here.

My little line cooks had to come help in the kitchen while I made dinner.

They are not great helpers!

Trouble and his apprentice!
