sweet sharing boys

Dear Connor and Hunter,

We had a great Easter weekend. You two looked so cute in your vest suits. You had fun dressing up too.

I was trying to get a good picture of the three of you... this is as good as it got.

It started with a cookie decorating day at Grammy's. You two made a huge mess. You sure love to use sprinkles. I was just glad that Grammy made the cookies because they tasted really yummy!









Sunday morning Kaylee and I were in the recliner sleeping when I heard a gasp. I opened my eyes and saw Connor standing in front of his Easter baskets. He was holding an egg and a chocolate bunny. He looked at me with these big 'ol eyes and said, "cany?"
Mommy- " Yes, it's candy. Go tell Daddy the Easter Bunny came."
Connor- running down the hallway with egg and chocolate bunny in hand, "DADDY! DADDY! CANY!"

You got three easter baskets. The easter bunny brought you one, Grandpa Dan and Grandma Shannon brought you one, and Grammy and Papa Steve brought you one. The Easter bunny brought you new bibles and books, some buzz underwear, and bubbles. Grandpa  and Grandma Shannon brought you eggs filled with quarters, jelly beans, and chocolate, very elaborate hand decorated easter eggs, and stuffed animals. Grammy and Grandpa Steve had the best basket of all though... A BUZZ basket! It had buzz pajamas, buzz action figures, buzz sippy cups, and buzz stickers all packed in a buzz bucket which was inside of a buzz bag! You two were thrilled. You've worn your buzz pajamas twice already and if I would have let you wear them to bed dirty you would have worn them three times!



You had fun doing the Easter egg hunts. Connor got right to work and picked up as many eggs as he could. Hunter was a bit slower. Connor slowed down once he realized there was candy in the eggs because he wanted to open the eggs and get the candy out as he was picking them up. Hunter filled his basket with eggs and then began putting the eggs back where he got them. A little girl followed him and every time he put an egg back she'd pick it up and sneak it back into his basket!





As spoiled as you are though, you are two really sweet boys. Tonight you proved it. Daddy made a hot dog. Connor was too afraid that he would get burned because he thought the hotdog was too hot, but Hunter was fisting them. Connor didn't get any hotdog. So.. Daddy made another hotdog. Same thing. Connor was too scared, Hunter fisted them, no hotdog for Connor. So... Daddy made a third hotdog and gave it only to Connor. This really upset Hunter so Daddy told Hunter to ask Connor if he would share.
Hunter- "Connow, shawe, please?"
Connor decided he would share and he took a bite and then he would give Hunter a bite. He shared until the entire hotdog was gone. So... Daddy made a fourth hotdog. He tried to just let you two share it but Connor said no. He wanted to be in control of the hotdog. When there was half a hotdog left Daddy wanted Hunter to practice sharing so he gave the hotdog to Hunter and told Connor to ask for some.
Connor- "Huntew, shawe, please?"
Hunter tried to take the plate from Daddy and Daddy was trying to get him to share. When Daddy finally let go he realized that Hunter was sharing. Hunter took the plate and held it in front of Connor so that Connor could eat as much as he wanted. You are two of the sweetest boys around. Never change!
I love you,
Mommy
