How do you add more chaos to house with three kids, two dogs, a mom who has been working crazy hours and a Dad who's learning to cook dinner every night now? You have a 13 month old start walking of course. Sloane took her tentative first steps a few weeks ago but is starting to get good at it now. Halfway across a room with no spills and going further each day. Are we thrilled that she's reached this milestone? Of course! Are we trying to figure out what to do once Sarah walks and we're outnumbered? You betcha. Once I figure out how to work the handy dandy new camera, I'll take some video and post it.
Ever since we found out we were preganant with twins, we've been bombarded with the twin stories and statements from other parents of multiples "Oh, they'll be so close" and "They'll have a special twin bond". I've now deciphered what all of those parents were really trying to tell us - "They'll start fighting even younger than the average toddler". This past weekend was witness to the first Sarah & Sloane Smackdown. It was like pro-wrestling for toddlers, or a game between the Yanks and Red Sox! Let it suffice to say that after Sloane had taken a crayon from Sarah we learned who could hit, who could push, who could pull hair...and who could bite.
Erin's recognized that all of these events have given her a bit more freedom - while we're busy separating the twins, she's figured out that she can get herself the popcorn, sit back and watch. Hmm.... enjoys bench clearing brawls and dirty fighting - looks like we have another NY Rangers fan in the making!
