Friday Funny

Today was a fun day. Da-da! is home from work and we had a play date with another set of twins -- boys -- who are just about the same age. They prove how normal Jadyn and Liana are by their incessant desire to need new toys to play with, their high-energy and their constant obsession with food and drinks.

But, today was a first for me in many, many ways.

While potty training is still far away for us, the boys have started using theirs and today they used ours.

A few minutes later, Liana dropped her pants and diaper and began to run wild around our dining room table.

Next thing we know, four 2-year-olds are running in circles -- one naked, one in his diaper, and the other two in their pants -- but no shirts.

We have video for when they are teenagers. Shame I can't show you all. You'll just have to trust me that it was the funniest thing, ever.

I felt like we might have crossed a threshold of parenting. It was funny, but I didn't know what to do about it other than to laugh. I knew it wasn't right, but she was having fun.

All good things come to an end, though.

She peed on the floor, just a few feet away from the potty chair.

Talk about a party pooper.

He he, I can picture it. And--by the way, I can't promise you my boys won't chase your girls around the table naked while we're there, too :-)

2 year olds just LOVE being naked. Naked parties are even better :)

Actually having fun WITH your kids - isn't that a radical new experience?!

I don't think there was anything wrong with then running around naked. They're two. Let them enjoy this time without hang-ups. Trust me--the hang-ups are coming sooner than you think.

No, party pooper would have been worse -- you had a party pee-er. ;)

all good things come to an end. but what fun while it was happening.
what is with kids and being naked?
Leo still, at four, when getting dressed for bed in the morning will take all his clothes off and run around the apartment screaming naked boy!
Imagining four kiddos doing this makes me laugh out loud.
