More video fun with Thing Two and Thing One!

Thanks for watching!

Music by The Black Keys. Too bad this guy couldn't have joined in for some dancing.

Getting hit with a Brick: The Boys are Sick!

Do you know what’s worse than being hit by a brick?

Taking care of two toddlers with both of them sick.

Fevers and coughs and runny noses galore,

Buying enough medicine to close down the store.

Laying down to sleep makes it harder to breathe,

We’ll snuggle on the chair up close to Thing Three.

We’re sick and we’re tired and it’s looking quite bleak,

But we get to see grandparents at the end of the week!

We leave the house for a nice change of pace,

Warm weather and chocolate put a smile on my face!

We read books! Play football! Pose with our cousins!

(We’ll sit still for pictures if we can touch belly buttons).

Brunch at Grandma’s with bacon and eggs,

Driving and walking through a tunnel of legs.

The week was long, but the weekend was not,

Now we’re all back at home lost in a deep thought.

Thing One and Thing Two, What Are They Up To?

It’s time to check up on the two little Things;

Taking on the world and acting like they’re kings.

Licking up some frosting and filling up their pants,

Riding around in carts and getting spoiled by their aunts.

The baby shower’s not for us, but we don’t seem to mind,

So many aunts around, love’s not too hard to find.

When you’re always being held, everything’s hunky dory

It’s especially nice to grin and tell grandma a story.

Thing One’s crib is gone, it’s now a toddler bed.

A perfect chance to risk a fall and stand up on a head.

Switch, switch, switch and swivel in the director’s chair,

Visiting dad’s work after waking with bad hair.

A helpful smile in every aisle

When riding in the cart;

Mom will push us for a while

Since she’s quite the sweetheart.

It’s hard to wait for spring when the wind blows oh so fast,

For now we stand around and leave fingerprints on the glass.

While we wait inside, we’ll fight and scream and struggle

Except for a sweet moment or two when we decide to snuggle.


Thanks for reading this week's blog, I hope it's not a bore,
Check back next week to read again - I'm sure I'll write some more!

Pictures are good, and you've seen a ton; How about some video of Things Two and One?

You've seen plenty of pictures, and I'm sure that will do;
But how about some video of Thing One and Thing Two?
