Brothers

With Lawson's 2nd birthday less than a week away, I've been going through tons of old pictures. I just can't believe our baby is 2. He's not a baby anymore and barely a toddler either. Life definitely changed when he arrived, not just for us but for his big brother. I don't think Briley remembers life without Lawson, and he's been an amazing big brother since Day 1. So I thought I'd dedicate this post to the most amazing relationship that I've been lucky enough to watch grow every single day. Brothers and best buds.

Here is the picture that started it all. For the first week, Briley wouldn't hold Lawson. Finally one day, I hopped off of the couch and told Briley that I needed him to help me and hold Lawson for a minute. Something about the way I said it made it seem like he didn't have a choice, and he held him! That first moment made for one of my favorite pictures ever and the start of a relationship that I hope grows well into adulthood.

Briley started out calling Lawson "Baby Washin", then "Wason", then "Lawson", and now simply "Bud". Here are our two boys who play together, fight together, and call themselves best friends. How great is it that they get to live with their best friend? I love it, and I can say now that having 2 boys was the best unanswered prayer ever.
