Cat and Mouse

When the boys started crawling, Eric would take them upstairs so they could practice on the carpet in the hallway. They learned to quickly scurry away when the Tickle Monster (Daddy) would come after them. Aiden mastered crawling a couple of months before Reid got the hang of it. As soon as Reid got it down, Aiden started engaging Reid in a game of tag. Aiden would lean in towards Reid and then scoot away in the opposite direction. Reid picked up on the hint and started following Aiden. They've been doing that for a few months now and I love to hear their giggles when they're playing it. Somehow, I can usually tell that's what they're doing.
They also have guilty giggles, used when I forget to put the gate in front of the stairs or yesterday, when they climbed behind the chair and unplugged a lamp. That lamp is now in the other room. Now that the lamp is gone, the boys have discovered that playing behind the chair is great fun. Here they are in action.
