This has nothing to do with my children but I ran across this video and it brought to mind family pictures when I was younger. If I thought trying to get 2 kids to look into the camera and smile was hard try doing it with 4 kids. Inevitably someone would end up crying and [...]

Why our house is in a constant state of upheaval.
The Great Crib Escape
April 23rd, 2010 · 2 Comments
I always put the twins in their crib before I take a shower. It cuts down on any unsupervised mayhem. Today when I got out I went into their room to release the hounds. One little girl was running around her room saying “I play a minute”. I had to hide my face so she [...]
Monterey

I thought it would be a nice break after tax season (which seemed to drag on FOREVER this year) to take the twins to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Naturally we would spend the night because no one wanted to drive 8 hours round trip in one day. I spent days looking at hotels and special [...]
Yo Gabba

We’re a little late getting on the Yo Gabba Gabba bandwagon. I downloaded some episodes now that tax season seems to be dragging on and I needed something new in my toddler containment arsenal. It was amazing how quickly they latched on to this show. Loen is already singing the songs, like “Im sorry” or [...]

Snow Day
December 5th, 2009 · 2 Comments
We figured we would expose the twins to the snow before overwhelming them with the freezing tundra known as Bad Axe, Michigan (at least that is how I remember it the last time we went back for Christmas). Snow day at the zoo seemed like the perfect opportunity. Sledding, animals and opened an hour early [...]
Seasons changing

Like the title? I figured it was appropriate because a season is going to go by before I get the twins birthday weekend up. Lets get this going! I went to check on my sleeping babies the other night and realized that they aren’t….babies. They are (gasp) kids. They are getting lanky, stinky and they [...]

I wish I could really capture how wild my kids have become. I love them, they crack me up but sometimes I start checking the clock every five minutes wondering when bedtime will arrive. Our house is in a constant state of destruction and the noise levels have caused tinnitus at times. Here is a vignette [...]

Because we’re in the 21st century

You have to have video, audio, photo proof of every cough, smile, step. Such is the fate of our twins. Video in HD on Vimeo set to Nancy Sinatra’s “These boots are made for walkin”. Derby walks from The Tadpoles on Vimeo. YouTube had some issues with the Nancy Sinatra song so here is the [...]
