Have we told you yet how much the boys love THOMAS THE TRAIN ENGINE?  For a brief period of time, Joel and I fell into the trap of, when arriving home and trying to get the boys to stop hanging on us, we would pop in a Thomas the Train DVD.  Episodes last 6 minutes and the boys could sit for about 3 episodes.  This would allow me enough time to get their dinner ready and get our started.

Then, after a day or two, the boys started to expect this event would occur EVERY day.  They would demand it.  They’d get in their chairs, or our big rocking chair and point to the TV as you can see Nicky doing below.  They’d point to where we should sit and basically say, “Sit”.  It’s cute and exasperating all at the same time.

Sometimes, the boys would sit quietly and intently watch the TV.  Other times, they’d play with the chairs, stand up, recline the chairs, and fall over backward – much to their horror.  After Nicky fell over backwards, we went back to backing their chairs up against the wall.
