I have been taking the boys to the park lately, a little bit of positive reinforcement for Ean. He went through a biting streak and after punishing didn't work, we (meaning ME) are trying to reinforce the positive. So if he is good during the day we go to the park, not everyday but at least three times a week. It seems to be working pretty good, knock on wood.
I take a lot of pictures at the park but only a feware post worthy but there are several that are good so I think I will put them on my Kodak Gallery if you want to see them all. Come back and look for the link later.
Last night when we got home (we didn't get to the park), all of a sudden I noticed all was quiet I went in the family room and both of them were just playing quietly with toys. A miracle, I thought and immediately ran for my camera.
When I looked at this picture it made me realize that my kids are not hurting for toys, I never noticed before but through a picture you see so much more. I have gotten rid of two big bage of toys and it obviously hasn't made a dent.
Just a note of observation, now that Ben is playing with toys, Ean's generosity and sharing skill are being tested. For example after I took this picture and Ean noticed Ben was playing with "his" cars he immediately wanted to take them away. I wouldn't let him and explained why but I know this is only the beginning in a long list of fights over "My toys".

You can never have too many toys can you? Just kidding even I have had to get rid of things because they pile up so quickly. You r boys are so cute I love the park pictures.
That just means you have lots of toys for Ben, Ean, and Lucas to play with at the same time. :)
