I have boy/girl twins that just turned 2 in March. Doesn’t the time just fly by? Yes, those tantrums are patience testers for sure. Good luck with the car ride.
What’s 123 Magic?
Sorry for all of the questions, but I don’t have anyone close to me with twins. Did you start potty training yet and are they in toddler beds?

Happy almost birthday to your kiddos. Beware of 2. It sure is something.

Hooray for Chicago! Can we see you guys while you’re in? Don’t stress about it though. I know you guys have a lot of family to see!

Moving “back home” (my home, not my spouse’s) was one of the best choices we ever made. And that’s a lot to be said for one of the coldest places in the country (Minnesota). I don’t know that we’ll be here forever, just given who we are, our careers, and the fact that my husband wants to live near his folks (in Spain) when they are older), but I’m so glad we are near my parents when the kids are young. It is win-win for everyone, the way I see it. So I hope it works out for you guys eventually!

I’m in Chicago right now having survived my first flight alone with my 20 month old boys. Everytime I come back I see my family, friends, nieces and nephew and think it would be nice to move back. Then I remember the humidity, the winter, the schools, traffic, etc and Seattle seems perfect for us. But never say never!
Happy early birthday to your two. Looking forward to the flashback posts.

On the headphone front, we did not give the boys the option to listen to the dvd without headphones. It’s amazing how Alex got over his fear when he really wanted to listen to the tv. But definitely try it out with iphone/ipod before the first car trip.

Also thought of you last night. Apparently there is another sextuplet show with the AZ sextuplets. In the show, there were SIX 20 month olds running around, grabbing hair, hitting, it was chaos. I forgot how insane that time period was in terms of breaking up fights! The grandmother said she spent literally her entire day refereeing going from one fight to another!

If the toddler sized headphones don’t ‘stick’ for you, I found that speakers meant for an iPod work wonders at getting the DVD sound to the back with my kids so I don’t have to hear it in the front with me…It’s sometimes hard to anchor them, but well worth the effort so I can listen to music and they can hear their DVDs

Have fun on your trip! (And GAH! Chicago is too far away )
