My Twins and Their Two Year Check Up

Today, my twins had their two year check up and they, even being born preemies, have all but met the "requirements" of being a healthy two year old. I put requirements in quotes because my twins do not know 50 words yet, probably 30 at most.

One of the questions was can they put phrases together and I said yes, they saw "Thank You" and "I'm Sorry", along with "What's Up With That" and "Probably".

Oh, and my twins doctor confirmed that two year olds will not have a steady diet because they are finicky on a daily basis and they have lots of temper tantrums.

Well, that just put my mind at rest...a little bit.

She also asked if they are ready to be potty trained and do they let you know when they have to go potty. I said no to the first and yes to the second question. She said for us to just not push it, but that when they get ready to take a bath and once they are ready to get into the bath, see if they will sit down on the potty because this is when they are most likely to go to the bathroom with more ease.

One of the twins is 2 pounds lighter and 1 inch taller.

She said all is well and she will see them next year!

When you think of NC Naturals.com, you think of coupons and savings

Thinking of getting that perfect gift for you Mom and Dad, Sister wife, girlfriend or friend? Well, getting the gift with a coupon will make that gift even sweeter.

Does your Mom and Sister wear Gap clothing, hats, shoes and bath and body products? If they do, then you have to get your Gap Coupons here, then make your purchase here as well. Why not kill two birds with one stone? Makes sense to me.

Maybe your Dad wants a new laptop for work and play, what a better way to get him that laptop than to get an OfficeDepot Coupon, then do your shopping online without fighting those harsh crowds.

If your girlfriend loves getting her perfume and make up from Sephora, then you must get Sephora Coupons first, then ask her what she wants and purchase that gift online for her too.

I am telling you, with NC Naturals.com, this is the only way to get all your Christmas shopping done in 2007. Plus, you never had to leave your home, drive in horrible traffic and stand in those very long and tiresome lines.

Newborn Triplets and Mom were Homeless...Until...

The Triplets doctor stepped in and made a plea to the community to help her and her triplets out.

In Grand Rapids, MI, Monica Roberts, Mother of newborn Triplets found herself unemployed and homeless. At Green Gables Haven, a Barry County shelter where Monica Roberts, her babies and her mother are staying, hundreds of calls have been pouring in about helping this family out. Invitations to take in the 33-year-old mother and her babies have been proffered by people in Holland, Kalamazoo, Lansing and beyond.

Monica Roberts said she was "overwhelmed" by the outpouring of offers and that she never expected this to happen. "Monica can't even express how much people are willing to do for her and her triplets, two boy and one girl and that she had forgotten how nice the world can be.

Help Arrives for Newborn Tripelts and Mom

Mommy and Me PlayDate

Today, my twins and I went downtown for our weekly Mommy and Me playgroup.

This is cool playgroup because we do crafts, which my twins could care less about right now. All they want to do is play and not take direction at all.

This playgroup has two exercise balls in the room and my twins, this is all they want when we

get there. So, for the next time, I asked our playgroup coordinator to take the exercise balls out of the room so we can have less of a distraction.

Tell me, when do two year old actually begin to take direction and do what they are asked or told to do? I really want to know.

At this playgroup, we also made turkey hand drawings with feathers and glitter. Hopefully my twins has already dried.

Here are some photos of them in playgroup today.
