  • A little WWF Wrestling

    I wish my camera battery wasn't dead last night because I could have gotten some classic pictures of Matthias and Augustin.  In our living room we have an older couch that I let the boys play on, rather than the good couches that they have to simply sit on.  Before last night I had always thought that the WWF wrestling you see on television was made up by adult men who had a lot of time on their hands to make things look dramatic.  Now I know the truth....they just sat back and watched two boys ages 3.5 years and 5.5 years old wrestle around.  We had it all from jumping off the arm of the couch onto the other child, the jump and kick in the back move, the jump down, then back up while the other tries to kick you move and my favorite would be the knee jump onto the chest of the other.  And possibly the kick to the head (which made me cringe I will admit) just for some added drama.

    I know we are probably terrible parents, but we sat back and laughed as we watched them and both decided this is where the WWF gets their wrestling moves from.  Augustin is a tough kid b/c he took the brunt of the "abuse", but was laughing the entire time and would taunt Matthias with "You missed me that time."  It was all fun and games until Matthias slipped off the arm of the couch and hit his belly on the padded arm of the couch.  Not even an aggressive touch from Augustin; he's not a tough guy and we know that.
