My brothers, Josh and Caleb

Caleb doing his funny face.
This is my brother Caleb. He is very gentle, sweet, caring, and sharing, but sometimes he can be a big fusser and whiner. Caleb usually acts like he gets everything he wants and everything his way. He is a big talker, always repeating everything he says many times. Caleb likes to be the center of attention, so he does funny things and makes silly faces. He loves it when other people are over and he goes up and talks to them, unlike Josh. I guess he would be called the sweet, stinkerpot boy. Caleb is a lot like me. He likes to take care of owies, by giving it a kiss then putting a band-aid on it. I love my little brother Caleb very much!




Josh blowing raspberries.
This is my brother Josh. He is very strong, tough, brave, and helpful, but sometimes he doesn't listen and do as he's told. When someone talks to him, he doesn't look at them. He doesn't talk as much as Caleb. When a lot of people are over, he gets overwhelmed and shy. Josh will hold on to my mom's legs and hide behind her or want to be held. I guess you could call him the shy, but brave disobedient boy. As you can see, he doesn't look at the camera when his picture is taken. Josh is 2 minutes older than Caleb. I love my brother Josh very much!



Josh and Caleb sitting in my room.
Josh and Caleb are 3 years old, they will be starting preschool next year. They are taking speech lessons once a week, because they don't speak clearly, which is common for twins. The boys model for companies, they call modeling working. Josh and Caleb are very close to each other, if one does or gets something the other one has to too. They love band-aids and stickers. They are interested in many different things, even girl toys like Barbie dolls. Josh calls Caleb, Cay-Cay and Caleb calls Josh, Jshoshy. They love each other very much, and so do I! I love having twin brothers.

Oh Brothers!

This week I babysat my 3 year old twin brothers, Josh and Caleb. On January 18th (Martin Luther King Jr. Day) I babysat my brothers outside. One would run this way then the other one would run the opposite way. It was just so hard and frustrating. I got out some toys for them. Then they started fighting over one of them, the plastic car that you can sit in but you have to walk for it to move. I finally just said, "Boys, share! It's Caleb's turn anyway." Instead of Caleb taking a turn, he let Josh have it and rode the tricycle. What a sweet boy Caleb is. I started riding the go-cart and Josh and Caleb pushed me to make me go faster. After a while of playing outside and brothers fighting, I was ready to go inside. The boys wanted to keep playing outside, but I really wanted to go inside. I put away the toys. Josh and Caleb started drawing with chalk. Suddenly, we heard gun shots. We usually hear gun shots a lot where we live so I wasn't worried, but I made up a good plan to get the boys to go inside. I yelled, "Oh no! Gun shots. Hurry, we need to go inside, there's a bad guy. Hurry a bad guy!" Josh and Caleb rushed inside, they actually believed that there was a bad guy. I was taking my time slowly making my way to the house. The boys started rushing me inside. We went in, sat on the couch, and watched the movie My Dog Skip. I was exhausted from babysitting my little brothers. The boys stayed and watched the movie, or at least part of it. I started to lose my focus in the movie and looked for the boys to make sure they were still there, but they weren't there. So I got up and looked around the house, my mom was already putting them down for a nap. I guess babysitting is over until they wake up again. Oh brothers!!!!
