Video Friday – 05.13.2011

I know it has been a bit since we’ve blogged. Here are some videos for you to enjoy. I will hopefully do a picture post soon and I really want to do an update post too. They are growing and changing so much.

Don’t Separate Them

Over the weekend Noah and I were reading books and Matt and Ezra left to get dinner. I guess Noah didn’t realize what was happening and this is what happened after about 5 minutes and he couldn’t find his brother.

He is saying Ezra if you can’t translate through the crying. Oh and don’t worry I picked him up and we cuddled until Ezra got home.

This is how the boys react every time they spot our car when we are leaving the grocery store. every time. We’ve been know to make people laugh. Sorry for the quality and the bumpiness of the video, but I’m pushing a giant, heavy cart and using my cellphone.

Here’s a video of Noah cooking for Ezra and then feeding him.

Noah finally figured out his bike. He is so proud of himself. (I’ll be honest though the video isn’t super exciting, but we are still proud of him.)

I thought I would change things up a bit this Friday and share some videos instead.

We gave the boys bikes for Christmas, we thought they would be excited.

I was trying to get the boys to say “Happy Birthday Abby,” but this is all I was able to get.

When mom is under the weather

I honestly never wanted my toddlers to watch much tv and had succeeded fairly well in this area. Most of the success was due to the fact that the boys could have cared less! I have tried in the past when I was a little tired or not feeling the best to get them to watch something, anything, but they wouldn’t.

How fast things change! They are suddenly addicted to the Wiggles (or Giggles as Noah calls them). Nana and Papa had purchased the video for our trip to Colorado and the boys watched it a few times there and never asked for it once we got home, so we put it away. Then one time they didn’t nap well and were cranky well before dinner time, so we put it in and it worked like a charm. They would ask for it every now and then after that, but not all the time. Well this past month I have caught three different bugs and have been sick more often than not and just plain tired. I have started to use the Wiggles to get little breaks throughout the day.

I feel slightly guilty because they have watched so much of it lately. Yes it is in short spurts 10-15 minutes, occasionally longer, and I truly love getting to rest a little bit, but I feel guilty.

I know this is just a temporary thing and soon I will be feeling better (I have to believe I am building up one heck of an immunity for the rest of the cold & flu season) and we will be back to reading lots of books, playing legos together, and spending most of our time outside. They beg for it several times a day now. :( I don’t give in that often, but they do eventually wear me down. I think once I have my energy back will have to go through a Wiggles detox program.

The boys are ridiculously cute when the beg for it (see above pictures) and really participate in the video.

Yes he grabbed two lighters and shared with his brother, and yes we took a picture before taking them away. That's what the child safety part is for right?


Noah doing his hair.


Sitting and playing. Okay Ez is almost sitting, but it's hard when your brother is hogging the toy!


Get ready.


Ahhhhh!


That just doesn't look comfortable.


Arm, arm, arm? Okay he says arm instead of hand.
