My tummy at 36 weeks pregnant with twins

Capturing your tummy moving is a pretty cool and exciting experience, especially when there are two little babies dancing around. Here is a video of my tummy when I was 36 weeks pregnant with Annabelle and Andrew.

I could have guessed that they would be active little toddlers!

Getting up is hard to do

I remember how the birds used to wake me up in the morning. The kookaburras would be going crazy and the cockatoos would be sing en mass. I remember rolling over and putting the pillow on my head to block out the sound. It was an especially unwelcome noise on weekends.Then..... I had kids. I don't mind waking up to singing and giggles but when it's a non stop scream/cry get me up now noise at some crazy hour (OK the time 6.30 am on a Sunday morning isn't as crazy as it used to seem ..but seriously WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHY especially when it's cold. The last thing I want to do is get out of bed. It got me thinking about how I am going to 'teach' Annabelle and Andrew to give mummy and daddy a bit more snooze time when they're a bit older and can slightly understand the concept of time. I have found some clocks that may just help us get a little more zzzzzzzzzzzz's.

Yes we are twins!

Many people don't believe Annabelle and Andrew are twins. One is fair, one is olive. One has blue eyes, one has brown eyes. One has curly, sandy hair, the other has brown, straight hair. Aaahh how the gene pool works. Anyway, here are some random moments of my twins enjoying each others company. I promise they are twins and are related!
