Over The River and Through The Woods!

 Grandma came to our house!  You see that look of disapproval on her face?  It's because we surpassed 30 minutes of daily television.  Welcome to our house, Grandma!  Our Mama lets us watch tv.  She swears it has no negative remercussions on our intellectuance.
 I watch so much TV I'm already speaking approximately 40 words and clear sentences at almost 18 months!  Oh wait, no I'm not.  Just jokin'!  Where's Elmo?  Bah?  Bah?  BAH!!!
 Admit it Grandma, you are enjoying this quality time with us.  In fact, what you are really diggin' is whatever is on the box!  Heh heh.  Thanks for driving 8 hours so you could watch us sit on our goozies on the couch glued to the boob tube!
 Okay, okay...  That's not all we did!  We did LOTS of fun stuff and we always have a good time with Grandma!  First, we took Grandma to our neighborhood Soda Shop down the street where of course the food takes forever so we have to keep VERY busy with activities so as not to pull the antique bottles off the shelf and start rearranging their generally disarrayed junk decor.
 Grandma, I love you but I am not going to debate the merits of my artwork with you and whether my political leanings slant to the left or the right in this matter...
 Let's all agree to disagree!
 BAH!  BAH!  BAH?!?
 Atta boy, Jack.  Way to stand up in your high chair.  Now throw something heavy at someone's head.
Jacky is moving up, up UP to the toddler class next week.  This is bitter sweet.  Bitter for Mama, Sweet for Daddy.  Daddy's all, "My boy!"  Mommy's all, "My BABY!"  This is Mama's BABY, y'all!  These toddlers are no JOKE.  Some of these kids are as big as ANNA and they are two.  Do you think I'm joking?!  Do you?!?!  Have you been to a daycare lately?  I'm not sure what kind of Coca Cola these other Mama's are puttin' in their babies' sippy cups and what kind of steroid pumped chicken nuggets they're eating in their happy meals but DANG!  These kids are GINORMOUS.
Mommy wants Jack to stay a little baby FOREVER.  Like FOREVER.  She even started to cry about it to our teachers and the daycare director at pick up yesterday afternoon and sounded much like we do when we don't want to eat our green beans: "I don't waaaaaaant my baby to be around all those other big babies....waaaaaahhhhhh!!!"  But Jacky seems to like it so far.  I'm sure he'll love it until he comes home with his first broken arm from a full contact ultimate fighting championship match with one of "The Twins" (hereafter referred to as one of The Twins).  I wish you could see these kids' feet.  They are bigger than Anna's feet.  They are almost as big as Mommy's head.  They're not even two.  And they are twins and aren't twins supposed to be small by proxy?  What does by proxy even mean?  I don't even know.  Clearly I need to watch more TV. 
Okay, calm down Mommy.  It's just the Toddler Room.  It's not even the 2's room yet!  Chill, Woman!  I mean, I AM 17 1/2 months old now!  I CAN speak roughly 4 words (Bye Bye, Bah, Bah Bah and Baaaaahhhh).  Time to wrestle with the big boys.
*sigh*
It doesn't get any easier, does it Mommies?
Love,
Lilly, Anna and Big Jack
