i am hiawatha

we've had this little guy for 6 weeks now. 

time is moving sometimes so fast 

and sometimes so slow.

mostly fast and mostly good and getting better.

we're all getting the hang of life. for now.

hugo is such a cute little guy, in only the best, funny way.

arthur loves having a little brother, and he's stepping right up to his role of big brother.

i think he gets better every day. 

arthur, i mean.

(hugo, i know you're working on it...)

i love the big smile he gets when he sees hugo in the morning. 

he pops his binky right out to kiss him at least 3 times. 

he is so soft with him, unlike every other little kid i've ever met

(they sure think they're being soft, but really i'm just surprised so many babies survive).

he rubs his head, so softly, on hugo's and smiles the entire time. he loves it.

i just started giving them baths together (so much harder with two...) 

and he smiles and laughs and talks to him the whole time. 

whenever he gets hurt and i need to kiss it better, he makes sure hugo also kisses it better.

there really isn't a better kid alive. 

i love my hugo, but he just cries and sleeps and poops and eats, 

so it's hard to tell what the little guy is really like.

i'm excited to find out, and i hope he turns out a lot like his brother.

from what little i do know about him, he seems to be a pretty good kid.

we're keeping our fingers crossed. 

these are pictures of hugo at 1-2 weeks old. i'm a little behind, but trying to catch up.

this is my cute family. 

i love them too much.
