i had seen joshua and connor plenty of times before, but we’d never really gotten to spend a whole day together just hanging out.  and that’s what we did today — play and eat — all day long.  my kind of day!

when we got to their house, they were waiting for me to start a game of pokemon.  joshua explained the rules to me, but i didn’t get it.  mommy tried to help me, but she didn’t get it either.  so we moved on to bakugan.  boring.  instead, i searched their playroom and found a bunch of their old toys that were more my speed — a fire truck, some cars, a shape sorter, and a toy drill.  i even found some toys for ees-nano to play with.

joshua is 6 and connor is 4.  all the games that they wanted to play didn’t really look fun, but they seemed to be having a blast.  i watched from a distance at first, and after awhile, i wanted to joined in on their fun.  the boys didn’t just share their toys with me, they taught me and showed me how to play with them.  i guess that’s what it’s like to have a big brother.  big brothers are pretty cool, huh?

mommy said that she got a glimpse into my future — pokemon, bakugan, ray guns, beyblades, and all kinds of boy stuff.

dada was more interested in how well joshua and connor played together and entertained themselves.  they are about two years apart, just like me and ees-nano.  dada hopes that ees-nano and i will play together like that when we get older.  sorry dada, but i doubt it.  i think ees-nano will be more into her bobble-headed hello kitty.  and i’m not down with that.
