Seth is starting to enjoy finger painting more. He doesn't mind at all being messy in other situations but for some reason he's more hesitant in mother-approved activities. This particular masterpiece also documents for posterity that Seth has inherited great Grandpa Dude's famous "Thiele hands." I just knew I hadn't been lugging around manhands for 30 years for no good reason. And now those genes have finally found a resting place in one that will actually someday be a man. The circle is complete and a mother's duty done. Someday these babies will be smashing crackers with the best of 'em.
It doesn't look like Benjamin was a fellow recipient of Thiele hands, but at two and a half months he's already surpassed my abilities in at least one area. He must have inherited his tongue rolling skills from his daddy. If I remember my highschool science correctly (and I don't) the boys still have a 50/50 chance for winking. It seems like I should have brought more talents into this gene pool....
