So does Ellie - we had to watch the baby gate one three times. PS Ellie has always been fond of the ceiling fans. The one in the bedroom was the first thing she smiled at or "talked" to. She won't sleep if it isn't on. When she was wee tiny, I think she believed that it followed her from room to room. PPS Sorry about the multiplicity of dangling prepositions in this comment. I am too tired to fix them. I want more video of interactions! So does Ellie – we had to watch the baby gate one three times.

But would I be your phone-a-friend, in the unlikely event that you are ever a contestant on Who Wants to be a Millionaire? Probably not, as you have already said you think Matt would trounce me at Trivial Pursuit. (foolish, foolish girl.) Love this post, as always, especially the dawning realization that sometimes having twins is way more fun than having just one. Jeff said to me today that when we leave the twins alone in their room in one crib while we race about in the morning prepping breakfast, he doesn't feel guilty at all because after all, they are with a friend. Also, I DEMAND video of E's Donald Duck noise. And I want to talk more about this gender identity business. Hm. You have me thinking. Oh, and ps, E. pooped in the tub tonight and we had to scoop Ben out of there really fast to stop him from eating it. Yes, sometimes having twins is NOT more fun. What an honor to be your lifeline!

Funny how your exhaustive existence is a relief in my own. I adored the breakfast video from last week, as I have peeking at the photos from the Lake. Eloise and Julian are absolute delights to watch grow up virtually, even tho my heart pangs to be closer with every post I peruse. Please give everyone big hugs from Auntie Em up in Maine! xo I just got home from a 12 hour day editing 13,000 photos from three weddings last weekend, crosseyed, and the one thing I wanted to do was read this post.
