My First Blog

Welcome to my first blog! Why you may wonder did I decide to create a blog about the twins? Well, I have a good friend of mine who had her baby in August and during and after her pregnancy she kept a blog about her experiences. If you want to check it out, here is the link http://thestiersfamily.blogspot.com. I loved reading them and keeping up to date on how things were going since she lived in Kentucky, I still do. So I decided that maybe some of my friends and family who I don't get to see or speak to frequently may enjoy regular updates on how life with twins is going. (Thanks for the idea Bri!)

I have been wanting to create a blog for some time, but they say the first three months with twins are the hardest and while the twins have truly been great babies (I truly was blessed with very, VERY good babies), I think it is probably true. While every new parent spends the first three months settling in with their newborns, the first three months with twins have felt like being in constant survival mode. On October 9th the twins turned 5 months old, and I am beginning to feel the survival mode diminish and a sense of normalcy return. And so I think now is as good a time as any to attempt to maintain this blog and share all the joys and stresses of being a first time mommy to twins.

I hope you enjoy sharing my journey through parenting twins and enjoy watching the twins grow and develop.
