Here is a little story that I can't wait to tell at his high school graduation ;-)
The other day, before Grandma J arrived, I was busy trying to clean the bathroom (specifically the toilet Noah has been using as we work on potty training...so you can imagine how fun that is to clean!) and Lucas was hanging out in his bouncer right outside the bathroom. He started fussing so Noah comes running into the bathroom to tell me that Lucas is hungry and he needs to be fed. When I told Noah I would take care of Lucas in just a second, Noah informed me that he could feed Lucas himself (we hadn't introduced bottles yet so this was definitely not possible)!
I told Noah that only Mommy could feed Lucas, but Noah persisted and said that when he's a "naked boy" he can feed Lucas, too, and he lifted up his shirt and said, "See Mommy!" as he pointed to his chest. I chuckled to myself and tried to explain that only mommies have milk. Noah seemed satisfied with this answer and left the room while I tried to finish cleaning the floor quickly before Lucas got too fussy.
As I'm finishing up and washing my hands, I hear Noah yell, "I'm feeding Lucas!" So I quickly go out to where Lucas is at in his bouncer, and I see Noah with his shirt off basically laying on top of Lucas trying to nurse him!!!
When I told Ely this story later, the first thing he asked was if I got a picture. I definitely wish I could have photographed that moment for all to see, but at the time my main concern was that my less than 2-week-old baby was being lovingly squished by his bare-chested 3-year-old brother!!!
