Modeling

I had no idea how much the second child would model the first.  Even though Jonas and Porter are very different, Jonas loves to do what Porter does and say what he says, especially if Porter laughs and encourages him.  So, Jonas has picked up a few bad phrases.

Shut up

I don't like you

Don't like it

And he can walk around shooting a gun and using a sword like a champ... Not really sure that's what we were going for.  

I do love that the boys are getting to an age where they are starting to play together.  Really just in this last week they have started running around the house, laughing and playing. There is still a lot of fighting and crying since they will both hold their ground and aren't afraid to use physical force, but they really do love each other.  Jonas is always saying, "Where's Porter?"  And Porter will ask Jonas to give him a hug.  So sweet.
