Boys will be boys

Russell is the best big brother, always loving and hugging Max, always concerned everytime he cries - trying to give him a binky and/or toy and repeating "It's OK Max, it's OK Max, it's OK Max!" So sweet. He also keeps asking when Max will be big enough to wrestle with! A true brother. Max also thinks his big brother is the funniest person in the world. Despite being a 'momma's boy', his brother runs a close second as favorite person in world. Whatever Russell does, Max watches intensely. As a mother, the only thing better than having children is watching them grow and learn together. Max is almost 6 months old now and Russell is just over two and half. Max is sitting up with a pillow for support, eating cereal and if he is on his back on the floor, he rolls onto his tummy then pushes with his hands to scoot backward. Russell is full of stories everyday, integrating parts from all his books and daily conversations to come up with very elaborate details (some of which I have no way of interpreting). He loves hanging out with Dad and wrestling and playing basketball. We can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can start playing outside everyday!
