Teamwork

Jason and Sarah have a great relationship. Most of the time they get along really well. This closeness also spells t-r-o-u-b-l-e.

Jason (the boss) orchestrates the adventures, while Sarah (second in command) carries out the orders.

Here they are in action, trying to move Daddy's clock (which you can't see) to a new location.

In case you were wondering what life with virtual twins might look like, here are a few snippets from the last day or so.

Jason and Sarah were bouncing their bouncy balls in the family room (a "no no") and somehow Jason's bounced into our gas fireplace vent. We have no idea where it is, and had to resort to calling a fireplace dealer to come try to remove the ball. (ka-ching!)

Sarah enjoys feeding paper into the paper shredder (can you see where this is going?) so sometimes Daddy lets her shred old bills, etc.

The other day I heard the shredder start up, ran into the den, and Sarah was smiling and shredding to her heart's content.

I know what you're thinking, and yes, I realize a paper shredder is not a good toy for a toddler! Needless to say we have moved it... but in the meantime we are not exactly sure what she shredded. We are missing a tax document, and I have my suspicions as to its whereabouts...

Ah, but they are so cute! Such sweet, innocent faces... with such kissable cheeks!

So it's definitely a mile a minute around here... and I usually sleep really soundly when the day is done! :)

That's so great that they are friends. Maybe when Ella is a little bit older Zoe and her will play well together.

I'm so glad you journal about these little 'partners in crime' as I know they will treasure reading these and refreshing their own memories one day. Too cute! :) Hope your tax document shows up...OH DEAR!!! ;)

Have a blessed weekend! <><

Remind me to tell you about the candy hearts incident...Sarah was the mastermind that time. (I know because there was climbing involved!) They do love each other. I love how Jason protects her, he is so sweet with her.

Oh, I BET you sleep soundly after a day of keeping up with those two!

Murphy's law...children+ the sound of a paper shredder....you KNOW whatever was shredded MUST have been important! LOL...hope you can get a duplicate:-).

Hugs,
Tami

They are so cute! Kids close in age are fun.

Louanne said...

LOL. Sorry for the lost paper, but you know he is going to keep a serious eye on her as they get bigger :)

I feel so guilty laughing at your shredding misfortune. You are such a good mom to see it all for what it is. Does this mean you don't have to pay your taxes this year. Out or sight out of mind, right? :)

Sarah said...

hehehe! Toilet paper unrolling was usually a favorite passtime when Lily and Jadon were 2.

Blessings,
Sarah

I'm exhausted just chasing Ty around without a partner in crime. (His latest are escaping out the front door and getting snacks from the fridge.) I can only imagine what your life is like with the two of them.
