Gotta Love a Deere!

A John Deere, that is. It's official, both of my boys "dig" their Poppy's backhoe. Today was Eli's first time on it and he had fun. Carter wasn't too happy about sharing the backhoe or his Poppy but he did okay and allowed Eli some time on it.

Carter's reward for sharing with his brother was the opportunity to operate the digger all by himself. Here are some photos of him giving it a try. He did manage to move a little bit of the ground but was a bit overwhelmed. He did do a good job listening to his Poppy's instructions and let Poppy lend a hand!
