about us
This is a blog about Patti, Branden, Kai, and Finn, the two geeks and their baby (well, babies) of the title. We’re not famous. Neither are we infamous. But some people like to look at pictures of our kids, since they are rather adorable and so far are pretty good at winning folks over, so those people come here. We try to post pictures often, but life does silly things to schedules and we don’t fight it. *

@2geeks Ha! Vying for his own room already!Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Tweetie
@waxpraxis less looking for his own room, more trying to game a way to continue watching Wipeout instead of going to bed.

@2geeks My . . . Kai is very creative!!! I wonder where he got that from . . .
Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from web

Finn walks really steady, but like a bulldog.Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific

I caught him before he really got started (pshew) then kept behind him the whole way like a wall. But, he never seemed to need rescue.Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific

How can you tell when pre reading and word shape recognition turns into actual reading? Because, well I have strong suspicions.Add your reply Retwitting lolajl from TweetDeck
@2geeks So you think Kai may be starting to actually read?Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific
@lolajl if be had just memorized the shape I'd think he'd be more correct.Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific
@lolajl even more "damning": sometimes he reads a word but gets it only half rightAdd your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific
@lolajl it is possible. He reads signs, the tv guide, random written things with words I have no reason to think he has seen before/ often.

The cynic in me says this won't last, though ( if getting him to bathe is any indication).Add your reply Retwitting 2geeks from Twitterrific
Kai helped me make his bed just now and he's quite proud of himself.
