Our story

Amelia is in a new phase where she wants two of everything. For example, when she is playing with her farm animal figures and is holding a baby pig she will say, "two, two" as she scans the group of beloved animals to find the other baby pig. She absolutely does not want to play with an animal unless there are two of them! Thankfully we have a least two of every animal except for the poor baby goat, and after I have convinced her that there is only one she will chuck the goat to the side and move on:)

So, it was without surprise that she has taken to only wanting to play with "two babies". After watching her sway and shhh and rock her two babies to sleep, I have no doubt that she could handle twins any day! Here is the little mother herself,


Though I am sure it will be another of her odd, fleeting phases it does kind of make you wonder if being with another person in the womb and almost every single moment for the two years since has anything to do with this obsession with double everything! They are pretty inseperable these days, by the way. I watch as they follow each other's lead in play and show great concern for the other and so on. Sigh, I can't believe our babes are turning 2 on Saturday. How we love them more and more!

Hoping you had a most beautiful spring day,
Jen
