Yesterday, the girls turned 23 months and I can’t believe that in one month I will have two two-year olds!! It doesn’t seem that long ago that I brought home two tiny babies, who were already almost three months old. What really amazes me with the girls are their different personalities, and how fast they […]
I’m excited to share my most recent piece for Twiniversity for so many reasons. I’ve always struggled with how I look, with my body. I’ve always wondered how life would be if I were skinnier or prettier. I’m guessing most of you reading this have wondered the same about some aspect of yourself. I’ve constantly […]
Two tiny heartbeats jump up and down Nervous faces glance around Mama knows something is wrong You’ll be born before day is done Faces appear behind white masks Explaining their next-to-impossible tasks Time has slowed to a crawl Replaced by tears which begin to fall Then, you are both here No screams or cries to […]
Despite everything that was happening in my marriage, one thought that constantly ran through my mind was; can I really do this on my own? Can I do it all without a partner? Of course, I assumed I could not; that the logistics alone of three kids under the age of four would make it […]
So, technically the girls were 22 months yesterday, but the day kind of got away from me, so here it is. I can’t believe we’re only 2 months away from the girls turning two. What an absolutely crazy ride it has been, and it’s only just started. Raegan is as sassy as ever. She never, […]
I recently just started the 21 Day Fix Extreme version. It’s basically a pumped up version of the regular fix with a lot of balancing on one leg and jumping with weights. The thing is that I kept telling myself I couldn’t do it; it would be too hard, too intense. I wasn’t strong enough […]
I am excited to share a new piece I wrote for Multiplicity Magazine about how having twins will make you a better you (page 64 of the issue). When I first started writing this piece, I really felt like I couldn’t come up with anything, then the words started flowing. I ended by talking about […]
Yesterday was World CP Day, a day where everyone wore green and hopefully learned a bit more about what cerebral palsy is, and what it isn’t. My Facebook feed was flooded with green from other mums I know who also have children with CP and by organizations looking to promote understanding and compassion. Every one […]
21 months…so close to two, I can’t believe it! It’s been a busy month and even a busy few days. The girls haven’t been feeling great thanks to some daycare germs but have kept their appetites and willingness to play. Raegan was weighed today and clocks in around 22 pounds. Ella was about 21 the […]
I have to say, having worked with kids of all different ages, I got to have a front row seat of friendships and relationships in school settings. I can’t tell you how many girls I’ve worked with have dealt with bullying or relationship issues among their group of friends. But, I didn’t really realize how […]
