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.

Ridiculous Bling Bling

Okay, this is going to be a pretty ridiculous post tonight, but hey, it’s my blog and I’ll post what I want to...

Tonight’s focus is all about bling, bling. Baby bling, that is. We’ve all heard about those celebrities having babies (and twins seem to be really in right now in the celeb world) so let’s take a quick look at just how some of the disposable income gets used for their posh babies.

As you read through this, I’m sure you’ll be like me and think to yourself, this stuff is just so outrageous…keep in mind, there’s obviously a market out there for this stuff or these companies selling the stuff wouldn’t exist.

ORBIT INFANT SYSTEM

The Bugaboo is soooo very last year. This year, everyone is going ga-ga over the Orbit Infant System. If you like this “cream of the crop” stroller, car seat carrier, just drop $900.00 and it’s yours.

HIGH HEELS FOR TOTS

Novelty pumps that let infants channel their inner Carrie Bradshaw from Sex & The City make their debut in six colors - leopard satin print, hot pink patent, black satin, zebra satin, black patent, and hot pink satin.

Celebrities like Nicole Richie and Elisabeth Rohm are getting a kick out of their kids with Heelarious' high-heel crib shoes for their babies. Their little girls just might develop a footwear fetish with these silly pumps that are meant to be "her first high heels."



While these aren’t expensive – just $35.00, per pair - the idea is still pretty ridiculous so it makes my ridiculous baby bling post. http://www.heelarious.com/


SWAROVSKI CRYSTAL TRICYCLE


Now, this is bling! Swarovski Crystal encrusted tricycle by Glitzy Bella, sold at Hard Rock Store at the Hard Rock Store & Casino in Las Vegas to the tune of $2,000.00.

PRINCESS CARRIAGE BED


Fairytale dreams really can come true, but they can be pricey. If you want to give your little girl a “happier ever after” experience, look no further than the princess carriage crib. And, hey, it’s only $15,000.

I told you this was going to be a ridiculous posting tonight, but admit it, you found it as interesting as I did. And, who knows, there may just be a "Bling Bling Part 2" sometime in the future if I should happen to come across more outrageous tot stuff.
