Christmas Tree Barricade

We built a little barricade around our Christmas tree with phony presents. They are really just our disposable diaper stash. The boxes are heavy enough to be stable & the kids haven't mastered climbing over things this tall yet. Its working pretty good so far.
A little game of "who's who" for all the people who think they can tell them apart. The truth is they are very much identical- their personalities, their mannerisms, their love of hair pulling....so take a guess. You've got a 50/50 shot of being right. I'll post the answer later.

First off, I love you. Second, you're crazy!

You're asking for it! If you want to teach your kids to climb over stuff why don't you just erect a barricade and then put a sparkling, shiny, novel object on the other side. You're screwed! A week from now you'll come in to the living room and find them all swinging from the branches!

And you can't fool me. That picture is Photoshop'd. No two babies look that identical.

Robert says you should just get one of those plastic, orange snow fences!

I think that was a pretty clever idea! I haven't set up my tree yet because I'm still trying to work out the perfect arrangement to keep my kids out of it, LOL.

I hope Erika is wrong. It's such a clever barricade. I can't believe how much they have changed since I saw them. They are just too cute, especially the way they play together or maybe I should say steal things from each other. Just a guess, but I think Daisy is in the foreground. Love Mom

I can easily identify which one is Edison. Points for that, right?

It believe it is Daisy in the front, Ginger in the back.
