Help, I can't hear you!

I think the babies may have shattered my eardrums tonight. The screaming that has been going on in this house this last week has been crazy. Life is not fun with two teething toddlers! And getting molars in really suck.


Day in the life of a 16 month old twin:

Nothing makes you happy and only mommy or daddy can hold you and then if brother comes up and tries to get some love too, you may start to throw a fit because he is touching your mommy or daddy, and they are supposed to be all yours. So you decide to scream and rip mommy's glasses off to show her how mad you are. Or you hit your brother to get him away. Then he decides to hit you a few times and the screaming gets louder and louder until we don't remember why we started screaming but we are not happy campers. Don't forget that we don't want to actually eat anything you give us either. Everything we eat may hurt our mouths so we are just going to throw it all on the floor. Why else do you think we built up all of these fat stores. We had to be able to make during this torture process. But wait you know what does look good to eat? Sand, rocks, dog food, legos, or anything that anyone else is eating even if it is the same food that was just offered to us. Life is hard.

I miss those simple days of scarfing down PB&J sammies while looking at mommy and daddy like we hung the moon. Now we are just objects for vocal fusillades. Damn us for giving them the genes to grow chompers. Love you wife!

LOL! I feel your pain. My twins are 20 months old. I think I am more tired now then when they were up every 20 minutes in the early days. Is it just me? ;-)

My daughter likes to shriek and it actually does hurt your eardrums. My son has caught on that it bothers me and now he yells when my daughter does. She is usually upset, he is usually just messing with me.

Oy vey!
