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.

A Little Excrementitious Talk

So, we're having some fun in our potty-training these days. The twins are saying the absolute funniest things....while I understand that many of the readers of this blog probably won't appreciate the excrementitious talk, I just have to post a couple of these latest sound-bites from Paige and Taylor.

- Taylor, after pooping on the "big girl" potty, turned to me and exclaimed, "look, it's a hot dog poop"!

- Today, after another successful poop in the "big girl" potty, Paige bent over the potty and as she looked at her latest excrement in the water below asked, "do you see me little poop?"

- Last night, as I was enjoying a homemade brownie - well homemade to the extent that it was Betty Crocker homemade - Taylor came over to me and said, "mommy, you're eating poop."

Funny! One just can't make this stuff up...only out of the mouths of toddlers could bodily waste be talked about in such clever ways.

There are many, many more excrementitious tales to be told, but I will spare you the details. Needless to say, there's been a lot of successful pooping in the potty these days with Paige and Taylor and as many fun stories to go along with each pooping event!!!!!! Good times.
