Sharing is Caring

As the empathetic person that I am, I am forever trying to make sure things are "fair" between the twins. If one baby has this the other gets that. You will hear "you have to be nice" and "you have to share" a lot in our household! I even had to start dividing their food before putting it in front of them (I like to count how much is being given so that it is equal) because they will pop say, blueberries, in their mouths so fast you'd think they were competing. It's not just physical things I try to spread evenly, it's my time and affection also. It kills me when I'm playing with one and look over to see the other with a sad expression on her face. Autumn seems to be more adventurous and try things first such as taking multiple steps in a row now (exciting!) so of course I want to cheer and praise her but always feel the need to acknowledge Summer as well. So what I've been doing is instead of feeling bad for Summer I will get her to try and work on whatever it is that Autumn just did and then praise her for her effort. Or sometimes I will just swoop her up and cheer her on  for just being her! =)

I love their current obsession- Stuffed animals and dolls. So so sweet since both of them will hug and drag these dolls around. I also bought them giant pillow pets from Costco and they love those, it's so cute to see them dive onto them and curl up with them.
Just a couple more days before I get to see my lovely preggo cousin! Hopefully I'll remember to take lots of pictures to share the day with you all!
Love, Amber
