A Rockin' Good Time

In the last few months we have given the twins more freedom in our house by opening up the nursery for them to play in. There ARE several shelves filled with toys for them to play with, however, in true kid form they ignore their toys and find "toys". First they discovered the little bookshelf full of kids books that they can pull off and throw around the room. I wouldn't mind the fact that they get books out to look at, except for the fact that to find a book they have to pull out all 200-ish books to find the one they want. In effort to slow this we have put the rocker in front of the shelf. It makes for fun reading opportunities like this one.



Allyson is reading them an animal book and if you listen close you can hear them making cat noises (cat is Will's favorite animal/noise - thanks Grandma Karen). It would have been longer but the battery died on the camera.

Of course the penalty of using the rocker in front of the books is that then the rocker itself becomes the toy. I think they see it as a roller coaster. Just listen.




The funny thing about this video is that at first glance you might say, "Awe, look they really do love each other and play with each other." But then if you watch closely at the end Anna gives William a nice little push that, you would see if the video had lasted a little longer, resulted in his belly-flop/face-plant on the floor. Ah, aren't kids the best!
