Blue. No, Yellow!
November 2, 2006
That's right. You heard me.

I live in the Washington DC Metro Area with my husband, six year old boy/girl twins (aka The Goon Squad) and two loud cats. [Read More …]

Hey, my digital camera broke last week and so did Marcy’s. This is uncanny. Was there some kind of digital camera “pinch” event that we missed? (See Friday Flicks, quote 2.)
Whenever I would complain about the two’s, my cousins would say, “Oh, the two’s are nothing compared to the three’s. We call them the THRASHING THREE’S.” And I would think, “Oh my God, how will I ever make it if it gets worse than this?” But now Petunia is three, and the past several months have been ever so much better than the two’s. I think my cousins just don’t have any control of their kids.
I can’t believe you actually go to the grocery store with two two-year-olds sometimes. That’s like achieving world peace. (I’ll note that world peace is also “just one thing.” Maybe tomorrow you can get to that?)
We finally made it at 2:30.
I’ll see what I can do about World Peace on Saturday. I’ve got a playgroup here tomorrow and The Ravens game on Sunday.
Did you just say “the raven’s game” and not the bucs game?
Just wondering
Yes. I live waaaaaaay closer to Baltimore than Tampa.
But we’re going to try to go to the Bucs game when we’re there.
I can’t imagine having two of them. You’re like some kind of super hero.
Ditto on the hero comment. My friend has twins about the age of the Goon Squad *and* a newborn baby (what we like to call the “Buy two, get one free” form of IVF) and the fact that she not only gets more stuff done than me but has the nerve to be CHEERFUL makes me wonder if she can also walk through walls or prepare food just by thinking about it. Good Lord.
I’m thinking if you’re counting noses at the end of the day and there are still two little ones in the tally, you’re doing well.
Good. It’s not just me. And I only have one.
Makes me glad I only have one two year old…not that one two year old and one four year old is much easier. Just no napping. Did you ever get to the store?
I feel your pain, Momma.
I think your twins are talking to my twins…
Only a mother of multiples could squeeze world peace in between a playgroup and a Ravens game. Let us know how that goes.
can i buy you a beer?
Mine are 5 and 3, and I can barely get out the door. If they were both simultaneously 2, I’d be petitioning for some online grocery shopping options in this town.
Sarah……you have my Dawson times two and I don’t know how the hell you do it. I would be losing my mind….and my hair…..from pulling it out.
Oh my God I thought by the time they turned two it would stop.
45 minutes getting out the door this morning. AFTER they were fed and dressed.
I may just STAY in the car from now on.
OMG!!! That is SOOO the story of my life!! Just add two more kids into the mix, and you’ve got me!! Aren’t 2yo twins teh greatest??? ugh…… is it 5pm yet?
I don’t know how you do it! I consider it a miraculous feat to wake up, get dressed, walk the dogs & get myself to work. I know I couldn’t take care of 2 people!!!
Oh, I was hoping it gets easier, too. Dammit.
