More like boys will be monkeys, if you ask me!
Gone are the days when they sat docilely on the edge of the tub watching the water flow. This is what I caught my 8 year old twins doing yesterday…I’m sitting in the family room and I hear all this noise coming from the boys bathroom. They are yelling WOOHOOOOOOO! and laughing up a storm and the curtain hooks are rattling something fierce. I think to myself, “This can’t be good”. Boy was I right! I walk into the bathroom to find Cade standing on the soap ledge (which is halfway up the shower wall) poised to jump! They were taking turns jumping from the ledge, swinging from the shower curtain rod and landing in the bottom of the tub. The curtain was askew, there was water everywhere and they look up and say, “Oh, hi Mom!”, like nothing is out of the ordinary! Sadly for me, this is true. Not a bit out of the ordinary. Just another episode in the days of my life! Those boys are going to be the death of me!
Lucky for them, I also think they are adorable!
LOVE THE BUMS, GUYS!!! (I'm gonna show Zack!)
ReplyDeleteI hear stories like that from you and all I can say is... mwahahahahahahaha! Welcome to the club! I'd love to tell you (and Kristi) that it gets better, but the most I can promise is that it gets different. :) I *heart* BOYS!!!!! (Mine and yours both!)
Ha! Scott sees stuff like this and says, "Are you **sure** you want kids?" :P
ReplyDeleteYep... that's boys! What do you expect with a crazy father like Bill? See... I'm in the same boat... Shane has inspired his children to be crazy. They climb the fence outside and do back flips on to the trampoline... next they will be climbing the house. We should have stopped those boys from bunjee jumping all those times... before we started down this path of bringing children into the craziness! :) What can I say... you gotta love them! And you are right... they are So Dang cute... how can you not! :)
ReplyDeleteThank goodness I am not the only one! Thank you for helping my sanity! ha! So, are you telling me that it doesn't stop at age 7? I was kind of hoping for a lull in the excitement!!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how big your kids are getting!
