Like Father Like Son

Anyone who reads the blog or has known our family for at least 5 minutes already knows how much Ronan adores his daddy. He will do or try to do anything Patrick is doing. Seriously anything.  Work with tools, sweep, clean the garage, drink coffee, drive the car (ok, he doesn't get too far with those last two), cross his arms, laugh, dance. He's at that fun age of copying pretty much everything, but he is especially in tune with his daddy. And one of their favorite activities to do together is mow the lawn. So of course when a little lawn mower was spotted at the hardware store, it found its way to our home. I'm not sure who wanted Ro to have it more...

I took some photos a few months back, but before they ever made it to the blog our water pipe broke, we got busy and distracted and then Aislinn came along.  So I too fresh photos recently and thought I'd share.
