today it was sunny, and i chased the babies in the grass. i also took the babies with me to meet brother for lunch, and it was near-disastrous. all of the dishes had to be pushed to the middle of the table as to stay out of their reach, and they ended up eating half of my french fries, anyway. normally charming, thiel and abby turned in to screeching rugrats once we were in a public setting where screeching is frowned upon. i understand now why people don't take their kids with them when they go out to eat.
