He's and AR-teest!

So tonight in the bathtub we were coloring with the bathtub crayons that Nana got Barnes for his birthday. Usually he just scribbles away and never puts much thought into it.

Tonight, after he finished his work, he declared to me (without my ever asking) that the purple at the bottom of the tub was a horse and the orange to the right was a doggie.

This is the first time he's ever told me what any of his drawings were. I'm impressed! He has an eye for art. I'm pretty sure Summer 2010 will be his abstract phase judging by his current works.

Two year olds are so fun! Its always an adventure and they constantly surprise.

Barnes and his artwork!

And moving on to an unrelated topic~

I've been thinking all day how the last two years have been the best of my life and part of me feels immensely guilty (by having another baby) that I'm changing the dynamic that Barnes and I have. Each day is an adventure and we can go and do and are so independent at this point. I know having a new baby will change all of this to an extent and we will have to be on a strict feeding/sleeping schedule for the first time in a long time. The other part of me says that Brad and I are giving him such a gift of a sibling. A gift I never had and always longed for. I've been trying to make the most of every minute of this summer and enjoy all that Barnes is. Good things are to come, but I also know a chapter is coming to an end too and its a little heartbreaking.

I'm so blessed that God gave him to me 25 months ago. What a gift these months have been just the two of us everyday (and of course Daddy too when hes home!)

Thanks for reading and I'm sorry for the mushiness tonight. Must be the prego hormones. :)

Love to all!
