HOW I GOT MY BABIES TO EAT WHOLE FOODS

Let's not fool ourselves. My kids eat mac and cheese sometimes. And nilla wafers. And yesterday I caught one of the twins in the pantry with 3 marshmallows in his mouth. Yep. That's life. But my intentions have always been this. If I start with the basics, feeding my babies what I eat, perhaps they will have healthy habits. Or at least healthy intentions.

THE BOY MOM

I got pregnant with twins on the first try. I know. That's nuts and ridiculous. But it's also God's work. Or as my husband said, "God's funny work." And I was scared to death. Twins?!! How? Like, what? I'm confused. But yes, I was indeed pregnant with identical twins. And all I could think was, I hope they are girls. I know girls. I can't have boys. I don't know how to do boys.

And then they were boys. And my husband named them Bo and Luke. And I fell in love. Hard. And I'm obsessed.  And I can't stop, won't stop with the love. Ever. Never ever. And here's why.

TO MY FIRSTBORN, I KNOW IT CAN BE HARD

Hey baby girl. Last night was a doozy. I’m sorry. I say that because I know that this is hard. And some may criticize me for saying I’m sorry. Some might say I’m too easy on you. That you need to be strong. Stronger. But you see, you’re 5. And being the big sister is a big job. And I’m sorry that it can be hard sometimes.
