I was looking through pictures we happened to have this month. Most of them are a bit random and around playtime (which seems to be anytime outside of nap and eating time).
Here's Trevor in his "throne" that John built him. He spent a lot of time declaring "off with their heads!" that day.
Not to leave Ryan out, John built a Ryan sized throne too.
The rocking horse has regained it's popularity lately. Especially now that Ryan can play on it too. Turns out that all the best toys in the house are the ones that your brother happens to be interested in at the moment (both ways).
And we managed to get some snow last week. I'm not really sure what the official accumulation was, but not much more than what you see in the pictures. I worked that day and got to cross two newly formed 'rivers' on the way back from Trona. It switched from rain to big flakes about ten miles away from town. There are no pictures of the boys playing in it because, as Trevor explained "no way! It's cold and wet!" I think it's funny though that in the past year we've seen more actual snow falling in Ridgecrest than in Alaska.
Ryan's walking like crazy now. He hasn't quite mastered the standing from sitting move (though John claimes he has seen him do this) and I think once he feels comfortable with that he'll really be a biped. He's mastered the walking while carrying items (very important to him), turns, and squats down instead of just falling all the time. So he's really turning into a toddler more than a baby now. He seems to understand 'no', but finds it funny most of the time. Trevor keeps growing in vocabulary and understanding of all sorts of things. It's really interesting to hear the questions and thoughts that he comes up with day to day. I can understand the whole idea that time really starts flying when you have kids. It's hard to picture Trevor as when he was Ryan's age. And that was only a couple years ago.
