brothers

I love having two boys.

Samuel follows Matthew everywhere and tries to do everything just like him. Whether it is walking, running, making faces, screaming, jumping off of things, climbing, it has to be just like big brother. Samuel adores Matthew and vice versa.  I feel really lucky that they love each other so much.

Today was a glorious day...it would have been sinful to stay indoors...so I took the boys to the zoo.  We had so much fun and the boys were especially attached to each other.

Before we walked into the zoo, I asked them to stand next to each other so that I could take their picture. I had no idea of what I would capture...





These boys are so sweet! Makes my heart melt.


Holding hands walking on the rock wall. Matthew is telling Samuel to be very careful.

Here they are waiting for me to put the camera away and join them at the Gibbons.

Then we walked toward the lions. I am sure you are wondering if I prompted all of this hand holding. Nope.

This is the only way two little boys can view the meerkats. 


Then we back tracked to the komodo dragon. 
 Samuel looks like he is hanging on for dear life!






Next we saw the stone horses. 


Samuel was not really up for riding with Matthew, but Matthew insisted so Samuel went along with it. 

Jumping on the musical squares tohether.


You can see how Samuel sits just like Matthew. He does this all of the time. He tried to in the picture above this one but could not get balanced on his feet so he settled for sitting. 


Here they are on a rock wall watching a go-cart go by. Ahhh the fascination. 




 Last but not least, we played on the playground.




We had a full day with lots of smiles and laughs, hugs and hand holding. The weather was perfect and so were my two boys.
