(I haven’t done a general health/habits post in ages, so bear with me if you’re not into this sort of thing.) The girls turned 15 months old last week. I’m starting to feel like a legitimate parent with actual, like….kids. While sharing a park with some morose-looking teenagers a few weeks ago, I had one of [...] Dear Elise and Althea, Happy birthday, little chickens. We love you! Feliz cumpleaños, nenas! Os queremos mas que nada. Zorionak, neskak! Sigh. There will never be words. No matter which language, there will never be words to tell you how much we love you both. xoxo Ama and/y/eta Daddy P.S. I edited this video no less than 14,000 times in the past three [...] It’s no longer one or two tentative steps. She’s walking across rooms now, slowly but surely. (Sorry for the shitty video quality — I caught it with my phone.) Elise’s official first word: Daaa-Deee. When Daaa-Deee comes home from work, she squeals with delight: “Daaa-Deee!” When Daaa-Deee helps her out of the car, she sighs a contented “Daaa-Deee.” When Daaa-Deee peeks into the room to greet the girls in the morning, Elise mumbles an excited “Daaa-Deee.” Daaa-Deee works hard for his girls — all three of us. We [...] Sigh. The last month of infancy. Though they’re not toddling yet, and hence probably can’t be referred to as toddlers, they’re something a little older than babies, right? Some kind of crazy baby limbo. Anyway. Updates. Feeding Still nursing four times a day. They have a big breakfast, while the rest of the sessions get shorter and [...] No video or pics yet, but Althea took many unassisted steps today. She started a couple of days ago, but it was obvious tonight that she’s on to us. Determined, purposeful steps. Cue terror mixed with pride and excitement. Althea’s been on the go for a couple of weeks. She’ll push anything — books, boxes, this walker-push-toy thing. Elise likes to watch because man, why walk when mom can carry you around? Much to my surprise, the girls turned 10 months old last week. Double digits. Edging uncomfortably close to a year old. I’ll add some boring details, but I can sum it all up by saying that they’re amazing. They laugh, they cry, they chase each other, they give goofy looks. I love wrapping my arms around their [...] Hi! We’re now nine months old. 9 months old Eating We nurse usually five times a day — sometimes four, sometimes six or seven. The girls now get two full jars each of baby food a day (so four total — per day), along with about 1/4 cup of cereal each. This means my stash of baby [...] Grocery shopping with twins is a different animal than shopping with one or even two kids of different ages. With a singleton, you can put the baby in the shopping cart seat or plop an infant carrier in the cart and go. With kids of different ages, you at least have one that can walk, [...] |
