Perfect Little Gifts

Here's ANOTHER video from yours truly; this one documents Christmas Eve and morning. My family and Uncle Dan helped us celebrate with the twins. We spread out the gift bonanza throughout the day on Christmas Eve, so the babes wouldn't get too overwhelmed.

Enjoy!

Merry Christmas To All!

Nobody Puts Baby On The Floor

Aunt G sent an early Christmas surprise this weekend.  Two hand made, from Germany, all natural baby dolls for the twins.  Belle has developed a definite attachment to her belongings.  Of late, she refuses to leave her room without her blanket, tag rag, giraffe binkie, and Violet--her purple talking dog (it takes her about five minutes to make it three feet across her room; she refuses to make more than one trip).  Now she's adding her Baby to the mix.

Finn has yet to throw Baby out of his crib at night while he's depositing his pillow, blanket, Scout, and other plush contraptions--this is a good sign.

I filmed a brief video showing the twins playing with their Babies.  It seems Finn loves his Baby, but still has a strong attachment to throwing objects on the floor--thank goodness there's Sister Belle to save the day . . .

Enjoy!

Live Action Short

Now that the twins are extremely mobile, I find we're taking more videos than pictures.  Here's our very first video montage capturing some of October's best moments.  We had a blast visiting and seeing all our family and friends.

Enjoy!

My Best Friend Ever!

Dave and I love this commercial!!  We're pretty sure if Finn & Belle could talk they'd agree their Granddaddy, Oma-ma, Nana and Pap-pap are their 'best friend ever'.



PS:  I feel the same way about my Oma and Grandma!!

Baboons Are People Too!

I saw this yesterday on ABC's Good Morning America (I had to share, the clips only 3 minutes long).  Apparently stress-related health disorders have similar effects on baboons as they do on humans. 

Some things that went through my mind while watching this video:

1. I'm not sure which is more interesting, the study findings or the scientist being interviewed.
   
2. I think I worked in similar environments as some of the baboons.
3. My favorite quote:  'You've got 9 hours of free time every day to devote to making somebody else just miserable.'  (I most definitely worked with a few of those baboons!)
4. I thought all British people were born unhappy?

Enjoy!
