Harrison

Oh my gosh! Where to start with this guy? He is such a character and I don't just mean Spiderman, Superman, or any other superhero. He truely is a one of a kind Harrison. Harrison astonishes us with his observation and memory skills. He also has become very interested in bugs, snakes, animals, pretty much anything nature, and he will always point out his findings by saying "Come ere! I wanna show you". I can already see that his interests become more of an obsession for him and I want to encourage him in these interests because I love to see the passion that he has for almost all things outdoors.

Like Brooks, Harrison has a temper and anyone who knows him, knows exactly what I am talking about. He is as stubborn, if not more stubborn, than a bull and we are trying to figure out exactly which battles we want to choose. Robert and I are definitely on the losing end of most battles but...we're trying. One of our biggest battles is how to get this kid to eat. I swear he can go all day without eating and it wouldn't slow him down one bit. But with all his energy, action and stubbornness, he has one of the biggest hearts that I have ever seen. At the end of the day, after all the drama is winding down, he can melt your heart by telling you how excited he is to do something or by telling Robert and I how much he loves us. He is so kind, at least 95 percent of the time, to his little sister. And he is always trying to protect her or make her happy. Again, he really can melt your heart.

He has learned who almost everyone is in his family and is constantly asking about them and telling us that he wants to see them. And also, like Brooks, he is about the most social thing ever. He loves his friends and loves to meet new friends. We have been doing get togethers with friends since he was a baby so he really knows how to work a crowd. We are so in love with Harrison and Brooks and even though they can give you a real run for your money, they have given us more joy than we have ever known. We love you guys so much!
