I didnt mean just twins lol
I have 4 children, one with special needs....
so adding their siblings into the equation would be great, too =)

ok for first bithdays ...mine are born on xmas day so i hope you don't have that problem! But i just made sure that my eldest daugther got involved by choosing the decorating themes...so maybe get older siblings to help out there and remember for this age its more of the family celebrating getting through the first year with twins with their sanity intact...lol! WE took Tom and lily on holidays when they wer ten days old and they adjusted fine to where ever we went....When they got older we just used the strollers for everything...Feeding in sleeping in....pushing them around in...as it saved us from having to lug highchairs and porta cots around with us...when they slept in the stroller...we just made them up like a proper litle beds, and had no troubles at all.

As for pics...i got pics of them holding hands
pics of their feet...so cute
i also painted their hands and feet and placed their prints in a framed pic with the photo of their hands so we could see thrie real size too!

if you are bottle feeding i used to prop the bottles when they were about 12 weeks old as this gave me free hands for shopping, hanging washing up, spending time with older kids(prop the bottles with a cloth nappy..and always make sure you can see them so they don't choke if the flow is too fast..!)
ummm will come back when i have thought of some more things!
hugs shelly

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
