So Big (Brother)

Augustine has amazed me by how helpful he's been since Elias was born. 

Last week at the doctor's office he held the door for me, carries the baby seat for me, and even helped Lewis in the bathroom while we were there! 

Augustine loves being Elias' helper in the car and is really good at it. He can get his baby brother to take the binki like a champ. 

Yesterday I was overwhelmed with the happenings of the day and just needed to sit and cry a little. I explained to the boys that they didn't do anything wrong and I wasn't mad. I just felt tired and stressed and crying a little helped me feel better. I mentioned the groceries that needed to be put in the fridge and Augustine popped up and said he would do that job. I couldn't believe what a giving gesture that was from him. I said I would give him some coins for his piggy bank, but he said he didn't want any coins. Maybe we are doing a few things right after all. 
These two are getting good at finding things to play together. 
He really likes his new summer hat from Grandma Kathleen. 
He can't get enough of his "sweet little baby", as he calls Elias. 
He graduated from preschool!
All the kids got an award...Augustine got the leadership award!
His beloved Miss Shauna. 
Congrats Augustine! We are so proud of you!
