Boys being boys

See that little face? That's the look of absolute adoration for the big brother. These guys are already bonding over trains. An even better brother moment came last night at bedtime when Erik showed off his new-found talent for making, ahem, farting noises with his arms. William laughed uproariously every time. Then he stopped and grabbed Erik's hand. Erik got the most thoughtful expression on his face and said, "He just held my hand for the very first time!" Pause. Resume boy noises and laughter. I think these two are going to have a beautiful relationship.

Erik shows William all the features of the flashing, ringing train signals. 


Normal morning:
Erik building train tracks;
Anna in William's space;
William at the center of everything.



(To keep things fair, here's a cute Anna moment.  Anna is always trying to figure out the boundaries of our neighborhood and the location of everything else. So, when notified that our errands would take us to  West Chicago yesterday, she inquired, "Not Big 'Cago?" Try to find the zip code for that one.)
