At first, Luke had trouble sharing the swing with his brother. Being two is clearly very challenging. But we continously have been working with Luke on taking turns, and finally, after about 25 minutes, he decided to give Ben a turn. We were so proud -- yay Luke! Luke then learned to say "Ben's turn" and "Luke's turn" and we switch them in and out. It seems to be working - phew! Luke = a million, Parents = 1. But even though Ben had to wait awhile at first, he seemed pretty happy once he got his turn!

{A New Addition}
Our front yard got a new addition...a swing! Our old house never had a good tree for a swing, so we never bought one when Luke was a baby. So this past weekend, we thought it was way overdue! We finally got it up on Monday since the weather was gorgeous and spent some much needed time swinging...
