"What's gonna work...Team Work!!!"

I have always been so blessed to have a husband that is always willing to help out with our kids. Big Boy does more than his fair share when it comes to those not so pleasant things like diapering, messes after meal time ect.. It has been my goal to give our boys opportunities that will help them as they get older and start families of their own! Uno and Dos love to help take care of Cuatro. I have only found them putting the bottle up Cuatro's nose once or twice because they were paying more attention to the television then to their brother. I'm very proud of how much Uno and Dos cares about their brothers. Last night was icing on the cake. Big Boy and Little Lady were in the office playing on the many website we love to surf, when Uno came in with a diaper only Cuatro. With a big smile on his face he informed us that Cuatro had peed through his diaper and clothes. Uno took it upon himself to get the wet clothes off his brother and change his diaper. He did a dang good job. No body parts were hanging out the sides, the tags were in the front and it was on tight enough that the diaper stayed on when Cuatro was standing!!! We gave our approved appreciation and Uno left the room. 5 minutes later Big Boy suggest to Uno and Dos that they finish getting Cuatro ready for bed. It was a very proud moment for me when I turn my chair around to find Uno and Dos working together to get Cuatro in his onsie and pj's. Cuatro was so good to let them nicely toss him around to accomplish their task at hand!

So they have mastered diapering, dressing, and feeding a baby. On to teaching them how to clean up after themselves.
