Did They Read the Book?

Mommy is convinced that Clara and Emma read the book on "terrible twos" and decided to test the waters shortly before actually turning two years old.

This morning, both gals stood in their highchairs. Mommy asked them to sit down. They did not and Mommy warned them that they would go to their cribs. Now, Mommy and Daddy haven't done too many time outs and probably know the crib isn't the best place, but since there are crib tents there, it is the safest place for them- especially when both of them get a time out. They both ended up in their cribs crying for one minute. Mommy is not convinced that they understand the consequence piece and think that they quickly forgot. Oh well.

Emma and Clara have been playing with a new toy- "action" Yo Gabba Gabba figures. At least for now, these rank high on their list. They sat with them at dinner last night and joined them at breakast- sitting on the table across from their highchairs, while Daddy explained that they already ate and drank their milk -hoping it would coax them to eat and drink- not so much.
Emma said "I go find them" when looking for them after her time out. And Clara lovingly calls "Muno,"'Nuno." Emma knows all of their names and asks where DJ Lance is (he didn't come in the package). Special thanks to Jenn (and the Shotton crew) for these fun new additions to the Gornstein crew.
