Something New

We've had the privilege of having Isaiah and Phinehas with us since Thursday, and we've learned a few new things about each of them.
Isaiah loves the movie "Cars." He really likes to help in the kitchen, especially if it involves cooking or food. He can be pretty sensitive and is able to turn on the tears pretty quickly. It also takes the proper tact to get them to turn off.
Phinehas, there is so much we learned. He is the "quiet one," but you definitely have to keep your eyes on him. If he doesn't like some type of food, he will tell you that it's "hot." After you feel the food and assure him it's not hot, he will hold it in his mouth, start to cry, and then spit it out and tell you it's hot. When you listen to what he is saying to you, he provides the verb and a noun and you must fill in the rest. He will sometimes only provide the verb, and then you have to figure out what it is that he wants.
We've had a great weekend with both Isaiah and Phinehas. Jeremiah has also had a blast. It's been fun to watch him, watch his two older cousins. Shortly after his cousins do something there is Jeremiah repeating what he's seen.
We're taking Isaiah and Phinehas back to their parents tomorrow, who we know are anxious to be back with them. We'll miss our nephews but we've really enjoyed having them here and getting to know them better.
