Keepin' it current

.....well, current in our minds.
We are in our mid-thirties and we like to think we are still hip.  I'm starting to sense that our infinite coolness may be slipping away from us, since we still like mostly the same things we liked before we were 30.  :/ 
Both boys have baby books with pictures and things that happened in their first year of life, who the President was, how much a stamp was, etc.
I sort of forget to update them after that, but who needs to when I have the internet.
Today, I'm gonna add some current commercials that make us giggle.
You never know what's gonna be on TV when they grow up.  I mean, when we were kids Mtv actually played music.....crazy, right?

So the insurance commercials seem to dominate right now. But at least they are competing with humor.  There's the Mayhem guy and the "everything on the internet is true."
I always get a chuckle from the "no mas pantalones". 

My other half likes "discount double check"

Ryder's favorite is probably the hamsters dancing.  He makes us rewind it when he sees it.

Tyce is only 1, so he's not into TV yet, but he loves the Fresh Beat Band, which isn't technically a commercial, but they do play little snip-its on Nick Jr.

He also just loves to dance, so if you play anything especially Bluegrass he'll do a jig.

If you ask us about movies, I don't think our answers today are "current", but I'll add them in because they have stayed at the top of our list.
My hubs would definitely pick The Rock.  I would have to say National Treasure.  I guess it's safe to say we like Nic Cage movies.  :)
The last thing we saw in the theater, I think was The Lorax, before that maybe Cars 2, both very hip and very current.
Our music choices are typically classic not current (Allman Bros and Grateful Dead).  Although, my hubby's favorite (Yonder Mountain String Band) is very current in the land of Bluegrass.  We do, however, tend to keep our phone ringtones or alerts hip.  This probably makes us look very, very uncool to the teens, but we think it's hilarious.
On that note, I'll leave you with my ringtone, which I'm just realizing is from last year...... 

The baby turned 1 and I haven't even had time to document it.

The baby turned 1 in January and it is clear that he is totally mobile now.  I haven't had time to sit down and type up anything about him.
The party was small, but successful.  The main event was the smash cake, of course.
Since this baby enjoys food so much, I knew our friends and family were gonna get a good show.  And the Meat didn't let us down, he practically polished off the whole cake.  It was awesome, amazing and almost sickening at the same time.

The past year has flown by and we've pretty much settled into a good daily routine.
Tyce has mastered walking and now working on running and climbing.  He can climb up the two-stair watermelon stool in the kitchen and the couch in the playroom.
He wakes up every morning anytime between 4:30 and 6:30 (obviously I prefer the latter).  Usually the first thing out of his mouth is, "Whrrraderr", which is baby for Ryder.  It's for sure the clearest and most used word in his vocabulary.  He also says, "Cat." and attempts to say "ooottsie" (Bootsie), which is the cat's real name.  "Hat" is the other clear word, but you can definitely distinguish between the two.  Most everything else is baby jabber, but he is pretty successful in getting his point across.
I would say his favorite thing to do is anything that his big brother is doing.  They have actually started playing together.  It's so amazingly cute and it melts my heart every single time.  His second favorite thing to do is eat and he is usually toting a cookie and/or his milk around with him.
As more words are spoken I'm hoping I have time to get on here and write it all down, but for now I can't waste anymore of this precious nap time on the computer.
Except to add a bunch of pics......

Oh yeah,
And....
I got a new camera for Christmas!!!!!
Best gift ever!
But that's a whole 'nother blog for another nap time.
