I was going to post that I had a great day in the mountains with my friend Lynn mushroom hunting. Came home with enough to fill two kit hen sinks. It was a perfect, beautiful day in my mountains. Lots of exercise playing. Billy goat on steep slopes.

Happy Anniversary Sierrascrapper!

Breastfeeding my twins was so easy! God made it all possible. LOL
Disy...too funny about Twinkle 1 telling Twinkle 2 what to do. I guess the pecking order never changes.
Just had to share...today is my hubby's and my 22nd anniversary. Most likely, at this time next year, we will be celebrating Twin 2's PIR too. So looking forward to that!

My girls shared a room for ages and then when we moved to a bigger house they had their own rooms! Then my little ones shared until we moved to Texas - then the little ones got their own rooms and the big girls shared!!! Now the big girls have the "spare bedroom" which is full of their stuff!!! 4 kids is not easy to shift around!!!
Had to share a LOL. Got a text from my daughter to stay she had received a letter from her sister. So I said oh what did she say! So she says;
Just a short letter telling me to write and a bunch of other instructions. Still bossing me around from so far away ;0)
I just chuckled! That would be right!
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.

Mine shared a bassinet when they first came home for a couple weeks. Then they shared a crib for a while, then two cribs pushed together. They had separate twin beds when they were smaller. Then at about 6 they got a bunk bed/futon that they have shared since. I asked about sharing rooms because I was curious as sometimes I feel that maybe that is why they are so mean to each other.
Funny thing about people asking questions...since my husband is a twin...they say doesn't it skip a generation? I always just laugh.

What's a pumpkin seat? People ask funny questions. Like I was always asked, "oh, are they twins?" Which I found odd when you have two little babies for someone to ask. That was always followed with, "Are they identical?" Steve is a redhead and Sam blond!
