The Amazing Life of Twins

Life with Myla and Milan just seems to get crazier by the minute. Their mobility has added a whole new set of challenges for me but endless discoveries for them. Some of my daily challenges include not being able to load or unload dishes from the dishwasher. Inevitably, the babes will climb up on the dishwasher . The dog bowl of water can no longer stay on the floor and opening the fridge without two little ones in their with me is a thing of the past.

The most interesting of things has begun to happen between Myla and Milan. They now negotiate. It's amazing to watch! If Myla has something that Milan wants, then she will find another toy and give it to Myla to get what she wants in return. It amazes me that at such a young age they can figure out the power of negotiation. They have also began to soothe each other. If one baby cries the other will go to their cribs, pull out their beloved pacifier and pink dogie to bring to the crying baby. It's very sweet.

There are days that I feel like I'm losing my mind. But after all the blood, sweat and tears that goes into taking care of multiples, I always say the same thing when I put Myla and Milan down to sleep for the night. I say, it was a good day. And today was a good day.
