New pics of my boys

We just had the boys pictures taken and had to share!
Eli just turned 3 and has been home 8 months and Noah will be 3 in February and will be home 2 years in January!
Life is hectic most of the time but I wouldn't change it for anything. Noah looked at me the other night and told me I was his best friend! Melted my heart~

So handsome! Reminds me of when our boys were younger and we'd make them hug after an argument. We'd say, "Remember, brotherly love!" Their Gramma had t-shirts made up that said "Brotherly Love" on them... I miss my little boys....Teenage boys don't have much brotherly love! ha!

Jolene,
I love hearing from you! What great pictures! They look so comfortable with each other. I can't believe it's been 8 months--seemed like it dragged on forever!

I'm so happy to see the great pictures of your kids. Keep them coming!
