The twins are definitely going through "a phase" right now. It entails climbing up on anything and everything and DESTROYING whatever they found on top of wherever they are. Rest assured, it's a real treat for all involved. Just this morning my sweet Emmy fell off of three different tables...all before noon. Which left me wondering, why don't the skills of 1. being able to climb and 2. having the sense to not fall off of wherever you are DEVELOP IN TANDEM??? Seems logical to me, but it apparently doesn't work that way. Here's what I stumbled upon last night.
The colorful things you see all over the desk are roughly 5,000 Perler beads (that you arrange on a template and then iron together). What you don't see are the 30 or so Kleenex they ripped out of the tissue box and shredded all over the carpet. They also pulled the batteries out of the white noise maker Emmy is holding and were sucking on the batteries. Fabulous.
Do these children look even remotely remorseful to you?? They are LOVING every minute of this. Spencer suggests putting every bench, chair, or step stool we own in the garage until they grow out of it. Sadly, we actually might get that desperate before too long!

Classic! Love those twiners! However, it does make me a little nervous for the next few months when I enter that stage!!! Miss you guys! P.S. Love the haircut!
Maybe not remorseful, but they look awfully cute! Good luck to you!!
I love those mischievous little grins they have in the first picture. And how can you not melt when you see the second one too? So cute!
Oh my gosh -- they are so adorable! Very naughty and VERY cute .. dangerous combination. :)
You gotta love it! Just send them my way when you are ready to lose your mind. We love them and yes they are so darn cute!
Oh wow! My kids were never climbers!! I am glad. My little girl turns 3 this Sunday. I am looking forward to getting out of the 2's. I am sure you are about to begin. Good luck!
BTW, I would agree with Spencer!
Molly! I remember that stage. I am glad you captured it on camera because it helps you laugh it off...a little! Good luck!

I am so laughing at those pictures. I cannot handle my one little monster, let alone if he had a buddy to get into trouble with. All of our kitchen chairs and barstools are currently lined up around the walls of our family room. It is great to gather them up when it is time to eat. I'm glad I didn't have to clean up all of those beads. HA!
We just bought those iron beads and after a few similar mishaps I've been wondering what got into my mind to purchase them to begin with. I mean, they are brightly colored and interesting looking--many adults are even drawn to them and wonder what they are and what they are for? How were these two kids supposed to resist?!
Hang in there! I have a climbing one year old also, but just one. You have double the trouble, and I bet they feed off each others ideas. Makes for great blog entries!! :)
