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 Puppy & The Twins - A Perfect Match!

We’re getting the girls involved in some of the day-to-day activities of pet care for their puppy Tukker. It’s really important to us that at a very early age the girls begin to understand what they can and can’t do when raising a puppy so that they learn that their actions directly affect the future health and well-being of the puppy they love.

Their ability to relate to their puppy is becoming pretty clear as they are always eager to help guide their puppy to its “bed”, to help their puppy go outside and to reward their puppy with yummy “treats”. Today, I even heard Paige telling the puppy “I’m so proud of you” after the puppy had finished eating its dog bone. Hearing Paige easily relate to Tukker and give a little atta-girl “I’m so proud of you” message to her puppy was very sweet. It’s so nice to see the girls interested in their puppy and showing so much love towards Tukker.
