lately, you are the entertainment. a couple nights ago, you were hysterical over nothing. just makin' yourself laugh out of pure delerium (is that even a word? why, yes. yes it is. google told me so).
[at 20 seconds you're just deleriously happy.
at 30 something seconds, you're just plain weird.]
& just 5 minutes ago you told me you were going to "roll" to the fridge to get a drink. & then you did. like, you really rolled from the living room to the fridge while ellie & i just stared. hmm. it was awesome.
the things you think of these days are so stinkin' funny. so i thought i'd document some of them before i forget (or before you hit that awkward age where it's just not funny anymore, just annoying)
yeah, i said it.
p.s. i know this is the second video in a row of audrey. (you prolly didn't notice ,but it is!) i love ellie too, just so you know (i know you know, but i hafta say it) :) just a couple days ago, my mom told me i tell ellie she's cute more than i tell audrey. seriously? i have enough guilt about loving each of them the same, but different, you know? cause they are so the same, yet so different. it's constant in my mind. a serious complex. any twin moms out there get me? holler. now i'm pulling audrey aside & telling her she's cute all the time to make up for lost time. she just sticks her tongue at me. WAH. i can't win. therapy! here they come! KIDDING. (i guess this is for a whole 'nother post. small tangent) anywaaaaaays......

love that crazy girl.hm, wonder who she gets that from(wink, wink, nudge, nudge.)
i get you. i don't have twins and I even feel a smidge guilty when each kid does not get equal encouragement and compliments from me! usually they don't notice and it's just me. kids are pretty forgiving.
Ok, I know you were partly joking but you got me thinking.... In the Bible, there were those stories of favoritism with Jacob and Esau and nothing good ever came from it, so I think it's good for us as moms to be careful that we don't accidently do it! On the other hand, I think it's normal for some kids to "click" better with different parents and I think it's natural and fine and I don't want to make a big deal out of something that simply is not a problem. Jeez. This topic is a bit more involved than I thought. Perhaps I shall have to think more on it. Ok that was a lot to write about something you probably were just randomly throwing out there.
She is adorable! Thanks for making me smile!
Davi is sooo spiritual. But I totally get it too cause Miles is only 3 months old and I already wonder how I'll have another one and love them as much as Miles.
Oh my gosh, rolling to the fridge. Love it.
heehee, katy i came back here to delete my comment thinkin' nobody would notice my over-analysis. too late. am i allowed to strike my comment from the bloggy records?
no. no striking davi :) you're kingdom focused, and it's inspirational :)
MOLLY. more videos! more videos! i love watching them :)
and also molly.......no guilt. you are a great momma. (yeah yeah.......sounds easy, i know) but really...... just tonight at my bible study we talked about contentment. and it comes when we surrender to the Lord. HE is sufficient for your girls. and HE will work through you :)
you are so beautiful. inside AND out :)
oh ps. the (sounds easy) comment was referring to me, telling you, to have no guilt.
my writing is a bit all over the place, it seems.......
this preggo momma should probably just head to bed. fred. i mean, its 10:22 and i'm still up?? heheheh
Oh man, this totally cracked me up! And I totaly get your worry about loving one more than the other (especially since Emma is constantly getting herself in trouble--I feel like I need to punish them equally even though Maddie doesn't usually give me a reason to punish--but I don't want Emma to think I love Maddie more--if she would just behave herself!)! I've always been concerned. Although once I was pregnant with Ben, I was more worried about him. I thought "how could I possibly love another baby as much as my girls?"...But it's all good. As it turns out, I love 'em all :).
Oh, funny post! I totally get the twin love thing. I always feel like it looks like I care more about Lilly because she has all the cute girly clothes and Logan just wears...well, boy clothes.
A few posts back, but still had to comment!
The awkward stage where it's not funny anymore, just annoying?! You killed me!! How is it that that happens to EVERY kid? So sad :)
Totally hear you with the twin thing. I have so much anxiety over it already and they're only a year! How do I possibly make sure I haven't cuddled, consoled, carried, (and every other c-word) one more than the other on a day to day basis?! When I have a fleeting thought of how stinkin' cute one is, I almost instantly feel bad as though that one, will be 'the cute one' all his life and the other won't have any girls like him in jr. high! Agh, the over analyzation!!! (in case your wondering, nope, its not a word)
I'm done now. But thanks for posting :) - Katie
