Beavis and Butthead

The twins are at an age where when they are not annoying one another or annoying me, they are quite funny.

Vignette 1:

Evan has discovered that my belly no longer resembles that of a beach ball. After a few instances of my repeating that Baby 'Di Di' is no longer in my tummy but in the room next to his, he's finally caught on that there's nothing in my belly anymore. But he insists something is different.

So today he says with authority "Mommy has new belly button"
Mommy: What's happened to Mommy's old belly button?
Evan: Lost.
Mommy: How did Mommy lose it?
Evan: Throw away. Get new one.

Jordan loves to read. Recently, it's become more coherent as in there are real words to it. Here she is, reading something to her brother. She's struck his funny bone and he cannot stop laughing. She's desperately trying not to but is tickled to the core as well.

Evan: Beavis and Butthead laughter.
Jordan: Why you laugh?
Evan: So funny!
Jordan: This is the cow. And this is the tail. And the long legs.
Evan: Chuckle chuckle, laugh laugh.
Jordan: So funny! ... (the rest is incoherent, even to me)

Someone told me I should be worried that my 2 years 7 months children cannot read. Well, some days I want to be worried but it's hard to be when faced with these earnest efforts.
