Most afternoons, I'm sprawled out with these two, taking a much needed nap. When I'm not, it's because I had to go to class... boring, useless, not worth the credit I need anyway class. I've passed through several hoops for school, still a few more to go, but I'm starting to feel confident I'm really going to make it to Nursing school on January second. 
Here's a good one of the boys and my grandma and I reading. This is something we make a serious effort to do every night. My mom always read to me, and now I almost always read to the boys. The only nights they don't get stories from me is when daddy reads to them instead. Little Mushroom is more into eating books than listening to them yet, but sometimes he likes to sit with us anyway, and just stare raptly at his brother faces. He is growing and maturing amazingly fast, as most babies do.
Little mushroom (not so little anymore) has a definite preference for the meal time. He takes the usual amount of pleasure from grabbing the spoon and smearing rice cereal through his hair, on his ears, and anywhere else he can reach. And, if you've never had the distinct pleasure of trying to get baby rice cereal out of your eyebrows and arm hairs... well you really just haven't lived. What you can't get off immediately hangs around, showing up later looking for all the world like some kind of degenerative skin disease.
I'm going to have to cut this post lamentably short. Duty calls, Children are crying.
