All day today I thought about taking cute pictures of Nicholas... but I didn't because I feel like there are so many more pictures of Nicholas in my 365 than of Jonathan.  I haven't counted, it is just a feeling I get... 

Of course that is natural.  Nicholas and I hang out together almost all day every day, and so I photograph him more often.  Today, however, I wanted to have Jonathan there in the pictures.

After riding our bikes home from school (yes we rode to and from school today, it was very exciting, maybe a picture of that will happen soon), we played in the backyard.  The boys blew bubbles (given to them by the Target-After-Easter-Bunny) and I picked up dog poop and played ball with Marley (which he loves).

After a while, specifically after they figured out how to use their new tools to make nice big photo-worthy bubbles, I got out the camera.  Please note today's picture is still of Nicholas.  He is just so stinkin' cute!

I just need to keep reminding myself of how many photos I have of Jonathan when he was this age, and that I have always felt that as a second child I don't have quite the treasure trove of photos of my childhood that the first-born has, and so maybe photographing Nicholas a bit more this year isn't such a bad thing!
