Our Bustling Boy

I love this series of photos because it is so Leland. He has such a sweet personality. We often scoop him up and smooch on him during his play...he's just irresistable sometimes.

Leland is prone to intense bustling. He is always (and I mean ALWAYS) experimenting with something, working on a project like stacking cans or spreading a package of napkins all over the floor, or squating over Sophie's food and water transferring her bits of kibble into the water bowl one by one.

This was from a couple of months ago. We had potatoes with dinner and Leland decided Jerrick should have a piece too. So he balanced it on top of his head...??? After that Leland decided to clean things up, so he acquired a napkin which he had a little fun tearing up, and then he brought what was left over to where Jerrick was sitting with his potatoe hat. He let the shred of a napkin float down onto Jerrick's head and seemed very pleased with all his hard work taking care of his baby brother's needs. What a sweet and caring big brother he is!
