My oldest is three and having her was my bigest life changing event, I was 23 and out of college for only a month before she came into the world. Having her, and now her sweet little sister (7lb40z at 3:51am on the 5th just to brag and boast =) ) has taught me more about myself and my husband than anythign else could have.lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06661838247761249000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508857823676162312.post-5452515962797184292009-08-12T13:09:59.798-05:002009-08-12T13:09:59.798-05:00Congratulations!

Leashes...now it is not so bad..they are like twilltape zippered sleeveles vests..with of course the important part being about 36 inches of belt webbing in back..with a looped handle for the adult.

Most days I just have my 2 under, but 3 days a week I have my nephew which makes it 3 under 2! Advice? Hmmm - accept offers of help. Plant some trees to offset using the clothes dryer so you won't feel guilty! Sometimes it's the only way to get that never ending pile of washing done!! Enjoy those loving little snuggles :) before long Will and Peyton will be on the go go go!

You have a built-in playgroup, and you'll enjoy watching the different ways they pair up to play. <br /><br />I recommend the great advice over at howdoyoudoit.com. It's a great site by and for moms of multiples. I've guest-posted a few times there as well.<br /><br />Try to keep them in sync - think "routine" not schedule. If everybody naps at the same time, mom gets to put her feet up!Threeundertwohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07841404786048246834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508857823676162312.post-73669649608158384312009-08-11T02:25:47.716-05:002009-08-11T02:25:47.716-05:00Many congratulations of the safe arrival of your t...Many congratulations of the safe arrival of your twin boys. My best advice is not to worry - every stage of development is just a phase and it will change tomorrow into something different. Also, take plenty of photos and write down those milestones - time flashes past so quickly - you will forget!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167509507144389830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508857823676162312.post-80750662371766163152009-08-10T20:04:25.671-05:002009-08-10T20:04:25.671-05:00My biggest life-changing event was going from bein...My biggest life-changing event was going from being an empty nester to raising our newborn granddaughter.

I would say one of my happier life changing moments was when I was about 5 years old and my grandmother taught me to sew. I used to sit and watch her sewing on her old Singer. I was fascinated by watching and I started out making very simple Barbie clothes by hand.carolannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798163594433749622noreply@blogger.com
