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.

"I Did It, I Did It"

"I did it, I did it, I did it" Taylor shouted from the bathroom this morning as Paige and I were sitting at the breakfast table finishing up our cereal. That is code for me that Taylor either pee pee-ed or poo poo-ed in the "big girl" potty and she is beckoning me to stop whatever I might be doing in the other room and come see right away! As I entered the bathroom, Taylor could hardly contain herself screaming at the top of her lungs "I did it, I did it, I did it."

Sure enough, as I looked into the "big girl" potty, there was her pee pee. I told her, "you're an awesome big girl" and she REALLY is in case you didn't already know that by now.....

And, in other exciting news related to potty training, Taylor and Paige also stayed dry in their "big girl" underwear for a couple of hours this morning. That's our longest stretch of time yet for both of them staying dry. YAY!!!!!

Now, I must sign off for the day as I have lots of errands to run with the girls today...unfortunately, this means lots of drive time in the car so they'll have to don their diapers again for a little while but we'll be back home later today to resume our "big girl" pottying and to sport our "big girl" panties once again.
