Trees

Dylan has always loved to be outside. When he was a tiny baby in Salem, I would wrap him up in his warmest clothing and go outside and just sit.

And he would be so calm and happy.

Julia hates the outdoors.

 I'm not sure if it's because she was born in the summer and because it's 1,000 degrees here in the summer she really didn't get to experience "outside" until she was much older. Maybe the outdoors didn't sink into her bones the way it did with Dylan.

All we have ever had to do to entertain our son is simply go outdoors.

So it is no surprise that we are already climbing trees and building tree forts.
