Let Down Your Long Hair

The girls’ favorite fairy tale is currently Rapunzel (thanks to the Disney version, “Tangled”).  A few days ago, they decided to re-enact the story first thing in the morning. 

Becky called out for Susie to let down her long hair, and so Susie dangled her blanket down the side of the crib.

Becky began her labored ascent.

Susie held on tight to that blanket and did her best to drag Becky up.

Becky was actually getting close to throwing her weight into Susie’s crib, when I realized that I was going to have to cut short the fairy tale for the sake of my sanity.  See, the girls still don’t realize they are physically capable of climbing in and out of their cribs, which makes naptimes and bedtimes SO much easier (for me, anyway).  I didn’t want their re-enactment to spiral into other escape attempts, so I plucked Becky from the edge and told them it was time for both my Rapunzels to eat breakfast.  Thankfully, their hungry stomachs were stronger than their imaginations, so we headed downstairs without any further crib-scaling!

    What do you bet that Baby Jimmy will figure it out first, then show the twins how to climb out of the crib ?!!

    Molly’s favorite movie right now is also tangled. We watch the movie more times that I like to admit and she is in love with all things tangeled! We took her to the beauty and the beast in 3d mainly b/c she wanted to see the tangeled short before the movie where she and flinn get married. Molly has talked and talked about it more than the feature film.

  • My girls are SO into Tangled right now. I bet we watch it at least 3 times a day. Also, I’m jealous of their lack of knowledge about their capability to climb in and out of their cribs!
