Welcome!

Welcome to my blog - it's like a diary only better. This is my soapbox containing a collection of my thoughts and the experiences of my life raising twins.

Prior to this blog, prior to marriage and prior to the twinsanity that I now call my life, life was quite different for me. When you visit this blog, you won’t find me writing much about my life pre-twins – I hope that’s okay. Why? You ask. Because life with twins changes everything and my life pre-multiples is now just a dizzy, distant memory. And while it’s true that life years ago may have been a little more glamorous, the life I live now is a whole lot more rewarding and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

I’m glad you’ve stopped by...there’s a really strong chance that I won’t offer anything extraordinary here, but by the same token there is also the possibility that you will experience a taste of the adventures, challenges and many joys that come with my life with twins. Hopefully that will be enough to bring you back here again.

The Loving Twin Time Dollhouse


What little girls don't love a doll house?!

After all, a doll house is pretty much a scaled-down version of their own home.

Yesterday, I purchased Paige and Taylor their first dollhouse. It's a little Fisher-Price dollhouse and you'll never guess what it's called. The "Loving Twin Time Dollhouse". I know, how apropos!!! That's what I thought too when I bought it.

The girls spent the evening playing with their new dollhouse. Paige loved moving the little family characters that came with the dollhouse in and out of all the rooms. She re-arranged all the furniture testing the dining room furniture in the living room area, then in the kitchen area and then again back to its rightful place, the dining room. Taylor enjoyed taking over the "mommy" character and playing the role of tending to the "baby" and making sure "baby" got to see all 3 stories of the house pointing out little things along the baby's way such as the kitchen, the potty, the toys, etc.

It was really cute and fun to watch them use their little imaginations as they put together their own little connections between their real world and their pretend dollhouse world.
