Mischief and Melodrama







Two curly-haired twin babies for sale. One named Mischief and the other is Melodrama.









Melodrama is always crying. Frequently flops onto floors, furniture, etc. in weeping and wailing distress - pauses to look up and make sure you're watching, and then continues flopping. Does have a charming smile when he's not wet and snotty from all the crying. May possibly eat you out of house and home.




Mischief is frequently found pulling full cups of water onto the floor, pulling knives out of thin air, finding and ruining every dvd in the house, dumping entire bags of potato chips all over the house while caretaker is momentarily busy, and climbing like a monkey. Has a sweet side in that he is always up in Melodrama's face trying to see what all the crying is for and trying to console him if possible. Has a hilarious cackle.



Even their father has realized that getting home from work early isn't exactly a treat around our house.

If you happen to be in the Orlando area this weekend and would like to pick them up at Disneyworld, I'm pretty sure they will be half price by then.

I watched the two videos simultaneously for the full effect.

wow... I have no idea how you do it :) They look so innocent in that first picture :)

I think when they have cousins, Dawson and Carter, to entertain them in Disneyworld, they will be okay. Plus, there will be so many moving, lighted, tinkling things to observe.

Best wishes to all for the weekend. Great post, and I can vouch for its authenticity. That really is what goes on sometimes -- when they are not napping.

this is so funny. Tyler heard the movies so he insisted and watching. Then afterwards kept saying "Funny, waa, again, again." He finds melodrama pretty funny. I hope you have a nice trip to Disney world and that all the kids are their happier selves.

HA! I'm sorry, the doughnut and crying is HILARIOUS. Wow, why don't you have any sympathy?? :)

Is that Rodney Yi (sp?) I see on that DVD? That's a good idea to watch the videos at the same time.

And what is going on with Cash during Melodrama's episode of donut crying?

You are too funny...I would buy them, but I already have a mischief and a troublemaker :) (that is what my neighbor calls my twins)

Safire said...

Hehe...this happens here too. But with more high pitched screaming. Aren't twins fun? ;)

SuburbiaMom said...

How much? ;)

I thought I was clever for watching them both simultaneously, supposing that that was two thirds of what your life was like, and now that I see Angela did it too, I know (underlined, italicized)that I am clever! Sorry! Even at the tempting half price bargain I'm sure I'm not up to it. Try me again in 20 years!

What a crack up. Good names for both of them I must say. That's pretty much how I could tell them apart when I watched them. Phoenix is the one with the look in his eye about to do something naughty. Ashton is the one eating all the food and just so sad. So funny to see their little personalities. We had fun. I'll take them any time!

Cute added video. Good for Phoenix, trying to calm Melodrama.

And how nice of Heather to say they would take them any time. Mike and Heather were so brave to tend them just overnight, I think, so you could get away.
