A couple weeks ago Brigham began taking pictures with our camera. I thought it was so cute to see things from a child's perspective,and some pictures were pretty good pictures. Here are a few examples.





Unfortunately, a few days later Brigham threw the camera down the stairs and broke it. I feel bad that I am missing capturing memories of Ephraim as a baby. They grow too fast. Ephraim is now just over a month old and we enjoy having him here so much. Brigham loves being a big brother and likes to snuggle and hold Ephraim, help change Ephraim's diapers and give him his pacifier.

Mimic Me

I try to be careful what I say around children, because they usually mimic very well. I never thought about the other things Brigham might mimic that I do or say. I find him doing things I do quite often. When he wants something from me he will say "how 'bout ..." I guess I say that to him a lot.

Yesterday I was hand mopping the floor and he came in and said "Mommy, how 'bout milk?" I told him to hold on a second while I finished what I was doing and he said "Hop up! How 'bout milk?". It amazes me the things they catch onto.
