making it look easy.
A little over six months ago, I gave birth to twin girls. This was, as one might imagine, a life-changing experience. Life with twins is…intense. Many twin parents describe it this way and it’s the absolute truth. Lots of highs and lots of lows — times two. Two babies. At the same time. This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this AIN’T no fooling around. This is the twinzone. This is a knock-down, drag-out festival of love in which you are tasked with getting to know two distinct personalities with very different needs, which often occur at the same time. This is me carrying two babies down four flights of stairs just to get outside for a few minutes during that special “witching hour.” This is double the diapers, double the screams, double the kisses and double the love.
So I’m a little behind, coming to this halfway through my babies’s first year of life, but I feel like that’s a good place to start. Six months is kind of magic anyway. I’m not sure how personal I’ll get here, but I promise to be honest about the experience. If you want to see only the smiles and love and rainbows part, find me on Instagram.
Stay tuned x two.
