When Lindsey and the boys were up, Benjamin and I played a lot of "Sorry." He wasn't really into games before, but this trip was different. I'm not sure how many games we played, but it was quite a few. He definitely loved to win, but was a gracious loser and told me I did a good job when I won!
Their 'Grandma' (aka Susan, Donnie's mom) brought the boys shirts from Ireland when she and Don (Grandpa) were there. We wanted to get a picture of both the boys in them. This was actually St. Patrick's Day and the boys had worn their shirts to my school. I decided to have them sit on the hearth. Benjamin sat down so I could see if I had enough light without using my flash. William...well, he wasn't quite so ready to sit on the hearth... His Papa tried to help...unsuccessfully!
Benjamin patiently waited...
I actually had enough light if they were perfectly still...
but William at 2 years old is rarely perfectly still...
unless he's sleeping
We moved them to in front of the door...
Benjamin was encouraging his little brother to move closer...well, he decided he'd just move closer...
then the photo that wouldn't load shows William sprinting away...
I thought I'd try the flash..
which I don't really like to use...see the shadow behind Benjamin?
Plan C
We got Mama in the picture..
Actually, according to William, we got "Mom" in the picture. For whatever reason, he started calling his Mama, Mom. He would say Mom, she would say Mommy. He would say Mom..etc.
Plan C isn't working too well...
Ahh...well, it's not the best, but it's the best we were able to do! It was nap time for William...probably not the best time to take a picture anyway!
This was for you, Don and Susan! The shirts are great!
