Trouble

It's not that bad when only 1 baby is crawling and pulling-up on things, but 2 is going to be trouble. As far as an update, Eli is doing great. He has been as happy as can be. The surgery hasn't slowed him down much. In fact, he's gotten faster and has started pulling-up and climbing on things. He tends to get himself stuck in places because he's so curious. He'll climb on top of something and then can't get down or get himself wedged in between stuff because he was trying to squeeze through a small space. And he doesn't hesitate to let me know that he is stuck and unhappy - that kid sure can wail when he needs help. Noah is cruisin'. He walks along all the furniture in the house and can stand up anywhere as long as he has one hand to hold on with. He's always crawling around the house with something in his hand. He'll find something that he finds entertaining (an empty water bottle, a belt, a spoon) and hold onto it for hours. He'll go everywhere with it in his hand, loudly banging it on the floor as he crawls around. And he does not like it when Eli tries to take it away. We've seen some pretty nasty "games" of tug-o-war which usually end in 2 baby's screaming and me wondering what is so exciting about that specific spoon.

Ha! Too cute. I love hearing about the adventures that parents of twins have.

Ahhh brotherly love, yes wait until they get those big heavy toys and they throw them at each other ... no fun, or when the biting starts in ... this you have now is picnic. The change of the background is so dark, it's hard to read for us old folks :)
