It is my goal to choose something calm and unlikely to induce nightmares when choosing that show. For several years we got away with just turning on “The Goodnight Show” on Sprout. Recently, a rebellion of the older two boys has ensued with accusations of that show being “for babies”, “boring” and the worst offense in my house, “for girls”. Oh the horror.
To squash the rebellious masses, blog-Stedman has purchased some DVDs that have made the boys squeal in delight. They are relatively calm and don’t seem to cause nightmares so count me in.
Last night the show had been set on the TV and blog-Stedman and I were downstairs eating dinner when Rhett(2) came down for a wardrobe adjustment:
It appeared that his police belt was too big and kept falling down around his ankles. I fixed the problem by punching an extra hole in the flimsy belt.
Life at two was great again. He wants to make sure you note the one driving glove and his “camera”. Don’t try to tell him they are binoculars. I am just warning you. He returned upstairs to the TV.
A bit later I went up to check on the boys. I hear hysterical laughter. I walk in to them watching this:
(the episode where Gilligan accidentally has an plastic explosive tooth filling)
I turn to see this:
This:
And this:
I have been downloading Bob Newhart shows for my stand-up to be 9 year old. He thinks it is the funniest show in the world! Yeah for retro kids!
Your boys are so cute especially with their wardrobe choices. Glad they like Gilligan!
i just love this so much. my boys do this too. i will happen upon them dressed up in the most magical creations.
OOzing cuteness…..LOVE the pics of them all dressed up 🙂
The pajamas are just extraneous. Clearly they are just too cool.
Look at all that calmness, crazy suits and all. The getting ready for bed thing around here is not quite so easy. Maybe I’ll mix it up a bit by adding a little TV quiet time AFTER they behave!
LOL – well quietly smiling .I love Gilligan’s Island … they are so cute Holly and your’s or Dadddy’s dress sense ?
Oh, I love it. Question though? What was the last one doing? He looks like he is with the bomob squad or conducting some scientific experiment.
I love how you take pictures of a situation (like the wayward police belt) before fixing it. Where would we be if you weren’t so quick with the camera?
Those pictures of the boys are great. And it’s awesome that you’re raising them on the classics like Gilligan’s Island. I turned on the Flinstones for my son the other day and just about forced him to watch it.
Of course, he loved it.
that is freakin’ hysterical. at least they have an awesome fashion sense.
