It's Pajama Time...and Running Away

Some boys demand to wear a Halloween or super hero costume all day long as they imagine they are saving the world...Soren, well he would rather sleep apparently since the first thing he does when we get home from anything is put those PJ's back on. And it is not always the same pair, he often switches between his truck, dinosaur, or tiger pajamas...at least he understand that we do not wear pajamas when we leave the house...his daddy made that very clear to me early on in our marriage when I tried to wear the unthinkable to the store...never again.

(Ezra is in one of those see through domes at the playground, that is why there is an odd reflection in the picture)

Ezra has mastered the art of running away. If you were in our home you might often here "Ezra come here let's change your diaper." To which Ezra responds by walking up to you with a big smile then jogging backward before you can catch him...this can go on for sometime, that is until mommy decides to stop being lazy and chase him down. Another very familiar scene starts with Soren playing quietly on the floor by himself...building blocks, reading books, playing with his cars...then from the corner of the room bolts Ezra who grabs the toy Soren is playing with (even though there are several on the floor just like it) and then races away as fast as he can... VICTORY is his, until his older and faster brother catches up and retrieves his toy...but this does not stop our little Ez-man, he can steal toys from Soren all day long. It is as though he is saying "Ha Ha, take that, now you no what it feels like."
