Weekend Blog Round Up
I’ve been on vacation. All last week I was down in Florida on a family vacation with two babies, two grandmothers, a grandfather, an aunt, a husband, a stop to visit a great-grand mother and me. I am either crazy or brave. Or both. Once I get the laundry done, the blogs read, the mail sorted and so on I’ll espouse on the glorious adventure that is flying with infant twins.
I “pre-posted” stuff for the week, and am rather curious - did it all show up at once or did each post arrive on it’s own day, the way it was supposed to?
So…though I have not made it through all the blogs - there are over 100 posts in my reader so it’s going to take me a while - here is a brief smattering of last week in twin blogdom.
Cass over at Many a Mile to Go is trying to figure out what to do about night waking. This is a dilemna I know well; do you wake baby #2 to feed after baby #1 gets up, or go back to bed yourself and hope for a long stretch of sleep? What do you do?
PokerPeaker muses on the absolute nature of parental love. His twins are due soon, so he’ll get to have twins AND a toddler. That scares me. He’s got a pool going to guess the date his twins will arrive. I am not entering because I can’t even win a door prize, but maybe you have better luck than I do at these sorts of things.
Jenn at Club Mom has a question about cloth diapers. Any help out there?
Emmie at Better Make it a Double has a beautiful post on memory and recordings. Posts like that make me swoon with the beauty of the writing and the thoughtfulness of the subject matter. Or, to be less sweet, make me writhe with jealousy. Stop writing so well, would you? You’re making the rest of us look bad.

Oooh, vacation…what is that? I have a distant memory of vacations
Hope you had a fun time. I would love to hear any thoughts on traveling with twins. We haven’t actually flown with them yet. Long car drives, but no aeroplanes…

I think the posts showed up daily rather than all at once. Hope you all had a great trip, and I agree, let us know how the plane travel went.

Thanks for the vote of confidence.
It not only scares me, it terrifies me.
OH. And thanks for the link! I have a poker post above it so I hope your readers, probably already a little muddled because of no sleep, aren’t confused by it. Le’ts hope they scroll down once.
Thanks.

Mel - a vacation is where you accept sleep schedule disruption in exchange for warm weather and extra baby sitters.
Eva — Good to know. Thanks. Travel stories to come.
Poker & Emmie — You’re welcome.
