Neratwins in 2014

I haven't posted in about 7 months! That's insane. So much has changed, not even sure where to begin. First off, I am now back to freelancing. Right now I am on an MTV gig with a producer I worked with when I was a PA on cribs, Erika. She's amazing. I should be on this for another 2 weeks. Lisa is still going strong on Dora and the spin-off they're working on now got a 2nd season pickup already which is great news. So she'll be on it for at least another 2 years. Hopefully longer! We have been thinking of what she/us will do after Dora finally wraps up. We both want to start up our own show one day with 2 of our friends who are also in the biz. Hopefully that can come to fruition soon…

The boys are now 20 months old! Here's a quick recap:

1. No more pacifiers! Took them away at maybe 16 months and haven't looked back

2. They are both running and climbing everywhere. They just learned how to climb onto our dining room table! So yeah, gotta somehow make that childproof

3. They push around their highchairs to different parts of our living room/dining room

4. They dance on cue, can point to many different body parts, love singing The Wheels on the Bus and Happy Birthday

5. Since they were around 16 months, they became obsessed with the movie Pitch Perfect. I tried to get them into normal kid movies like Toy Story but…prognosis negative. They don't give a shit about Woody and Buzz LightYear. On a brighter note, they're finally starting to get over it but Jericho is now obsessed with a Music Video that was part of the iTunes Extras from the movie. Honestly, its pretty sweet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYtYCNkR1Yo

6. Whenever we turn on any light in a room they both yell out in unison "Liiiiigggghhhhhttt!"

7. They started to play a game of running with each other. Jericho would stand on one side of the room, Gray would yell "Go!" and Jericho would run to him. And then they would change it up. Its the cutest thing ever.

8. They speak to each other in their baby talk a whole lot. I often wonder if they're talking about us hahahaha "this guy keeps asking me where my nose is, what the fuck is his problem?!"

Since I am now freelancing, I often have a few days off in between gigs and its great that I get to spend time with them at home. It can get frustrating at times because they still aren't fully comprehending what we say and they are constantly testing their limits. I try to remain calm and be stern with them but sometimes, I can't keep a straight face and end up laughing. They are quite comedic when they're being naughty.

I just realized I have a draft that i never finished from back in October! I gotta try to write more...
