One-on-One

When you have twins, its hard to have one-on-one time. From day one, there are two babies to take care of and give equal attention. Every twin mom I talk to has the same concern, is enough individual attention give to each child?

That being said, every time I have the opportunity to spend one-on-one time is a treat. Luckily, I've had that time. It presents itself through a trip to the doctor, snuggle time before sister wakes up, a trip to the store or any number of different ways. It may be for just a few seconds or a couple of hours. During those times, the girls individual personalities really come out.

Sweet Gracie

Gracie loves to sing, dance and just be creative. Coloring, drawing or cutting makes her happy. Also, she has her own dance moves and makes up songs. Its fun to see what she will come up with next. She makes up karate moves and "super power" moves. As I tell everyone, she is self taught. She loves to watch others to learn from them.

Lovely Lizzie

Lizzie is a chatter box. She loves to talk, a trait she gets from Grandma. She loves learning and wants everything to be orderly. She is cuddly and loving. She will come up to give you a hug and a kiss. Also, she likes to take care of people. When Wes goes to work or we leave my parents, she tells them, "don't go fast, or go through red lights, look both ways, don't get hit by a car or get a ticket".

Both girls are so independent and sweet. Wes and I really blessed to have such good girls. We are thankful every day, even on the days when we are most challenged by their independence.
