Boo Boo's for Twin "A" from new toy

Twin "A" and Twin "B" just love their new climbing toy with a little slide on it.

But then again, why would they not like it.

Twin "A" loves this new toy so much, she has gained two "goose egg" ouies on her forehead.

They will be real shiners tomorrow no doubt.

Oh, but she will, and her sister, will get plenty more I am sure.

This is just what happens when babies, and yes, twins, have fun and love to play.

We were thinking that next year we will get them a swing set where they do not need those all around bucket seats.

Saturday Out with The Twins



Today, we all went out.
First, I exchanged a broken frame at Target for a new one, then, we drove to Stockton, went to a cute, but expensive baby boutique, then walked over to this Bear shop, kinda of like Build-A-Bear, the, we found out where Toy's R Us had moved to and went there to get Twins "A&E" a climbing toy.
I mean, when you have twins who all they want to do is climb, it is in your best interest to just break down and get them a climbing toy. It will last them at least 2-3 years and will be worth it.

When we got home, oh, they were t-i-r-e-d as all get out..

So, we put them down to sleep and I watched a two movies, back and forth, on TV, while my hubby watched the rest of golf.

Then, when the babies got up from their nap, I fed them, while Daddy tried to put their new toy together.

Well, we tried and tried and...hubby went across the street to get help from our neighbor. Our neighbor found that two holes had not been drilled into place as they should have been. He was kind enough to get his hole driller and drill the two missing holes in the plastic toy.

If the holes had been there, we totally could have put this thing together in no time.

I think I am going to email this company and make sure the do their due diligence before getting their products out the door to customers.

This is just typical of us to get a defective product!!

Twins Just Want to Have Fun

When my twins learned to crawl, there was no stopping them from cruising anywhere in my home. If they could have climbed before they could crawl, they would have; right onto our pictur window bench.

But, no, they actually learned to crawl, pull up, then walk..

That was good for me and Daddy.

Now that they are walking, there really is nothing stopping them.

You can see why I need a break at least once a week from my girls.

My Mom said I was on the go a lot as a baby too and was surprised my girls were just like me.

Well, yes, all this walking and running means, my twins just want to have fun!

Have you ever tried to keep twins from being on the go? If you have, how did you do it?

When Twins "A&E" were infants, I thought they would be infants forever and would never roll over or crawl, but now that they are walking, since they were 12 and 13 months, respectively, I sometimes wish I could go back to their infanthood for only a moment.

You never really know what you have until it is gone. Right?

Avent vs. Soothie Bottles for Babies

Avent Baby Bottles are supposed to be the best, right?

Well, I am not a fan of them at all.

Ever since my twins were 2 months old, all they did was spill on me.

I would get so frustrated because they would not stay tight.

Was I doing something wrong with them? Were they too tight?

I do not now, but my hubby and I began using Soothie bottles instead and they are the best. Soothie Bottles stay tight when you close them and they are easy to drink from. The only drawback about these bottles is that the nipple could fall into the bottle if baby sucks on it too hard. But this did not happen to me at anytime.

When our twins were in the NICU, they used Soothie Pacifier's to calm them down. So, when my hubby saw the Soothie Bottle's at WalMart, he purchased a 3-pack and they were the best.

So, if you are not happy with the Avent Bottles, try Soothie Bottles instead
