We are featured on the Columbus Mother's of Twins Club (CMOTC) blog since we won sign language DVDs through a blog giveaway. LINK

The CMOTC has literally been my saving grace. On top of the kick ass bi-annual consignment sale, I have met some of the most wonderful people which I have bonded with on a level I didn't imagine possible. We have different backgrounds and interests, but we all have one thing in common--twins. All babies were within 4 months of each other, mostly boys, all adorable. I met their Mommies when L&K were 4 months old. Thank you Sara, Alicia, and April for always being there and knowing what to say. Columbus finally feels like home. .:sighs:.

Monkey See, Monkey two

Holy Moly the boys are already two.  I know, everyone says "enjoy it", "they grow up so fast", and "mine were never that little".  Well, it does and looking back at old photos, it doesn't seem that they were ever little.  The last two years have been a blur.  Seems like forever ago and yesterday all at the same time.  While  I love that they boys are really starting to be able to communicate, I can tell that this year will be challenging for us.  BRING IT ON!!!  We're ready (um, not so much) to tackle speech, big boy beds, and dare I say Potty Training.

From their two year wellness check, here are the boys' stats:

Louden

31.94 lbs - 90th percentile

36" tall- 90th percentile

Keegan

33.38 lbs - 95th percentile

37" tall - 97th percentile

Dr. Heiny mentioned how patient I was during this visit.  Boy do I have him fooled.

The birthday party was held a week early to accomodate Grandpa Bob's and Diane's schedule.  We didn't want them to miss out.  We had 6 guests for our "playdate with cupcakes" which consisted of three other sets of twins, ranging from 19 to 25 months in age.  Not that we try to be multiple-snobs, that's just who we know.  I met all the MoMs through our local Twins club and we have become great friends, the same goes for the kids!!

Thank you Sara, Alicia, and Jenn for helping us celebrate!!

Here are a few fun photos from the party:
