Laughter and Noise: January 2011

http://laughter-and-noise.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

There are lives I can imagine without children, but none of them has the same laughter and noise." - Brian Andreas. Monday, January 24, 2011. A lover and a fighter. I know that I’m destined to have a conflicted relationship with my daughter. I have one with my own mother, and I’m well aware of how closely we all follow in our parents’ footsteps, whether we like it or not. When I say conflicted, I don’t mean. I'm sure this probably sounds. Ridiculous. And while I’m sure a shrink would disagree, ...To figh...

Laughter and Noise: Go, Bear!

http://laughter-and-noise.blogspot.com/2011/01/go-bear.html

There are lives I can imagine without children, but none of them has the same laughter and noise." - Brian Andreas. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. So, Bear went to school in her big girl underwear today! This was a B-I-G step! She did, of course, have an accident there, but that's inevitable, I think. I'm hoping (hoping! That we can recreate this and just coax her out of diapers for good. Sigh* The saga continues. January 12, 2011 at 3:44 PM. January 12, 2011 at 10:33 PM. And, um, good luck! That was the plan.

Life with "Action Jackson and the Twincesses"!: He's Just NOT that into me...

http://actionjacksonandthetwincesses.blogspot.com/2010/06/hes-just-not-that-into-me.html

Monday, June 21, 2010. He's Just NOT that into me. I have been absent for a while, from blog-ville, I mean. One would expect that I'd be posting about the girls "Fabulous First Birthday Party". and I will. Today though, it's another 1 year old cutie-pie that's gracing the pages of my blog! Just a few days later she invited me to go walking. I was so nervous. It was like a second date with a great guy. You know, you don't want to mess up and ruin your chances for a future date!

Sotorrific Twins: Spoiled or Neglected?

http://sotorrifictwins.blogspot.com/2010/10/spoiled-or-neglected.html

The trials and tribulations of being a new mom to a pair of terrific twins! Sunday, October 24, 2010. I go back and forth thinking that my Matteo is one of these two extremes. Although lately it's leaning more toward neglected. Poor guy. I don't have to share him with anyone. A momma's boy in the making! Matteo, 2 weeks old, napping in our bed. Labels: 3 under 2. October 24, 2010 at 9:54 PM. The girls were planning yet another show in their room, and didnt want to be interrupted. View my complete profile.

Laughter and Noise: Nature v. Nurture

http://laughter-and-noise.blogspot.com/2011/01/nature-v-nurture.html

There are lives I can imagine without children, but none of them has the same laughter and noise." - Brian Andreas. Thursday, January 13, 2011. Nature v. Nurture. You’ll notice that, conspicuously missing from my snow day pictures. Is a photo of Button. One of the things that fascinates me about having twins is that it’s like having your own little nature v. nurture experiment. We raise both kids exactly. They both have "babies" and strollers and trucks and trains, etc. And I've consciously tried not.

Sotorrific Twins: August 2011

http://sotorrifictwins.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

The trials and tribulations of being a new mom to a pair of terrific twins! Saturday, August 6, 2011. Worst First Birthday Present Ever. After one too many people mistook Matteo for a girl, I decided it was finally time to cut his hair. At his age, I figured it was pointless to take him to a hairdresser and that I should just do it myself. I guess I forgot about the part where I have no idea how to cut hair. Links to this post. Friday, August 5, 2011. Cliched as it may be, this year has flown by! Usually...

Laughter and Noise: Frauds

http://laughter-and-noise.blogspot.com/2011/01/frauds.html

There are lives I can imagine without children, but none of them has the same laughter and noise." - Brian Andreas. Monday, January 10, 2011. I am a machine. That is to say that I approach (most) things with logic, discipline, and vigor. When our twins were 11 weeks old—and my husband and I at our wits end, wondering why sane people ever. Have children and how the hell you were ever. But, after a few days, we were actually able to EAT DINNER! Without holding a baby each! It was literally transformative.
