Lk rides his trike all over the farm (and in the house I will admit). But he hasn't grasped yet that if he rides into a bunch of mud, he will get stuck. Then it's, "Oh no! Mommy, oh no, it's stuck!" Guess who gets to carry the trikes back to the house :)
Lm is giving a very crucial speech here. One day he looked like this and he came up to me wagging his finger and said "No, no, no!" Gee, do I sound like that??

Farm Boys
My guys are "all boy" and they are definitely farm boys. The other night Grandpa gave Lk a ride in the big tractor and he was on cloud 9. Then later my dad came to tell me that Lk was still in the tractor. "What?? Why?" I said. "He won't get out." So I marched to the shed and lo, there was Lk sitting in the driver's seat moving levers, clicking the lights and steering his little heart out! I had to forcibly extricate him out of there while he wailed in fake agony. These little guys are obsessed already with trucks and farm equipment.
Lm longs to go into what used to be our pig shed growing up. It's now just used to store hay once in awhile but my dad keeps the outbuildings very spiffy.
Unsuccessful there, he attempts to break in another way...
Lk loves to run and he's very fast. We play this game called "tickles" and he wants me to chase him around until I catch him and throw him in the air and tickle him. He really wears me out and wants to play this game all the time. He's only young once so I usually indulge him.

Very cute!!! hehehe Total farm boys no doubt! These are excellent pictures and I LOVE the one of your dad carrying Lm out! hehehe Sounds like your bys have very different and unique personalities, which is wonderful! Love this post! ;o)
They look like they are loving the farm. I can totally picture him not wanting to get off the tractor! Lauren wants to play in the car these days too, it's a nightmare pulling her away!`
They are just the cutest things! Oh my! My twins would just have a field day with your two!!!!! Brennyn would be sitting in that tractor with him....
OK, wow. I have a WHOLE philosophy on this since I grew up on a pastoral farm, a sort of "idealized life of what SHOULD be" but what sadly isn't on the outside. I could say a lot, but I'll ask you to ask me via email.
On the surface, I'll say that sure looks like fun. Your boys are lucky to live in this agrarian life.
And they look like they are having a GRAND old time, and that's the important thing.
