I went into prelabor with twins at 21 weeks. I endured a spectrum of treatments from strict bed rest, procardia, terbutaline, indocin, corticosteroids, to the (gulp) 24 hour mag treatment, and home monitoring. Then my babies aged out of these options and there was nothing left to do but soak in the tub doped up … Continue reading
Our girls were recently featured on Girl Charlee Fabric for their May KnitPics spotlighting Chevron fabric. Twelve2 designed these patriotic outfits featuring their dad’s home state of Texas. It’s a perfect ensemble to bring in the summer. Twelve2 is a handmade product shop with a worthy cause. All proceeds go to adoptions or missions, that’s … Continue reading
Twins are like night and day. Their individuality comes alive during our afternoon walks. Ava tugs at my arm as she glances back at the dog that we left at home. She chants “ba-ba” as she mimics our dog’s bark. Kaitlyn reaches her little fingers to feel the groves of the sidewalk and gutters. Hugs! … Continue reading
Spring is in the air, and little toddler feet are pitter-pattering outdoors. At 15-months old the girls spend most of their days giggling, exploring, and chewing on toys. Oh, the life.

Ava often taps on the backdoor chanting, “deh-deh-deh.” I have yet to translate Ava-ish, but I’m pretty she’s saying. “I want to go outside.” Spring is a welcome season as we venture into the open air giving us a reprieve from … Continue reading
Can you really teach a pre-toddler to share? That’s the question I’m pondering these days. “How did you teach your girls to share?” I asked a fellow twin mom. We were at the park, and I watched with admiration as her four-year-old girls played famously alongside each other on the slide. “Well, to be honest … Continue reading
“How long does this last?” I asked my mom last week. I’m referring to this lovely season of pre-toddlerhood, and I don’t want it to end. Our home is filled with giggles and the squeals of delight from our 14 month old twins. The girls are roaming, climbing, and exploring their world. Their faces of … Continue reading
“Waaaahhhhhh!” I hear my daughter screaming at the top her lungs. I swoop in for the rescue. She’s just learned to walk, and her unsteady legs caused her trip and scrape her face on the brick wall of our porch. These mild sunny December days have lured the girls and me to spend many an … Continue reading
