Motherhood Without Warning

My twin boys were born with lots of dark hair. At one-year-old they both had quite the mops on their heads. I wanted to let it grow, but with self feeding and the pulling of eachothers' hair, I decided to get it cut. Unfortunately, it completely changed how they looked in other ways...

Today is the milestone I've been waiting for. Theo and Teak turn one today. It has been a long year full of scary overwhelming moments and bundles of joy and appreciation for how awesome little people are. Enjoy the year in pictures above...

Twin boys, so cute, so fun, so full of craziness! At almost 11 months Teak and Theo are both walking and we are starting to see them play together which is super cool. They laugh and chase eachother, but they are quickly learning how to work together to bring down the house, or in this video, the chair...

A new study which surveyed 1000 mothers found the average mother faces 12.5 hours a day of questioning which equals out to one question every two minutes 36 seconds or 288 questions per day. Oy! No wonder I'm tired. The four-year-old girl is the worst offender and I've got one those in my house. ...

I recently came across this list on Facebook. I like things like this because sometimes parenting is so overwhelming that a "should" list is helpful. I now have two sons, twins, that I can't believe someday will be grown men. If they did 50% of these things they'd be better off than a lot of guys out there...
