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.

Brrrrrrrrrrr.

Okay, so the title doesn't really have anything to do with the post, but it's been SO COLD around here over the last week that it's hard to ignore. As I type that, it occurs to me that I’ve really become spoiled by California weather because COLD to me is when it’s 50 degrees, whereas where I grew up on the East Coast in Virginia, COLD used to be when the temperatures were in the teens and with the windchill factor made it feel like it was a horrible 0 degrees.

So, I suppose I’ve become very spoiled by the fair weather here in California, but even so, 50 degrees still feels really COLD to me these days. I feel like COLD should be a caption under every picture I post to my blog. We were at a birthday party over the weekend. And it was cold. We were at the mall Christmas shopping yesterday. And it was cold. We were playing around the house today. And it was cold. Anyway....


Paige - COLD

Taylor - COLD

We are getting ready for our Christmas holidays. Today, my husband is at work and making arrangements for lodging/travel for our family for a short family getaway and is also trying to decide whether or not we let our dog Tukker tag along with us or send her to a boarding place while we’re vacationing over the Christmas holidays. Yesterday, Taylor, Paige and I went Christmas shopping to pick up a few last-minute items before Christmas….I have no plans of being at the malls tonight and most definitely not on Christmas Eve so I think I’m officially done shopping now! YAY!
