haha they might be getting a bit big for that!
there is no doubt.. they are best friends.
it makes matt and i so happy to see those 2 playing together, helping each other, sticking up for each other, and even getting into mischief together.
holden speaks pretty darn well for a 2 year old.
but there are times when i just can't figure out what he is asking for.
and then, from across the room (and in a tone of voice that implies that i should be embarrassed for not understanding) chet will translate for me.
he always knows exactly what his messy little brother is saying.
and he is always holden's advocate when he is in trouble.
chet is a good big brother. a good helper. and - for the most part - a good example.
and that makes us especially happy because holden will do just about anything his big brother does.
he follows chet everywhere.
chet is lucky to have such an adoring little friend.
holden is always willing to share toys with chet, laugh at chet's lame jokes, and accompany him on a scary trip into a dark part of the house.
chet and holden like to play with lego and train sets, go on family bike rides, play at parks, and wrestle with dad.
chet loooves lobsters (for some odd reason). he was thrilled to try this on at target.
i told holden we were going to pick up chet from joyschool, so he grabbed his backpack for the ride.
obviously.
chet and matt had a campout in grandpa leavitt's backyard, with haden and uncle todd.
