Children...
...that's what I seem to have now. Not babies.
Today, for example, Twin 1... crawled.... played pull-the-napkin... and clapped enthusiastically. Twin 2 kissed me and responded to the word 'kiss'. They are both absolutely lovely, gorgeous. They are also very heavy, and long. They are so expressive. They make me laugh. Today, for example, when we played the tugging game, I laughed, and she laughed back. They are incredibly strong. They are impatient and sweet. Twin 2 has gone right off my left breast and if she carries on like this I won't have any milk left(I'm down to four feeds a day and my period has started again... that made me a little sad).
The babies keep changing. It is quite incredible. Now they have their own playroom - or rather half of my living room, they are penned in with a long gate, and the floor is covered in thick soft rugs and toys and I let them roll and skoot around (or in the case of Twin 2, sit elegantly and then lean and lean and lean again until she gets the toys she wants with her oustretched fingertips).
Really, they are something else.

They sound wonderful, katty,and you sound very happy. Any chance of a sneaky picture?
Being able to actually play games with your babies must be wonderful.
At 6 weeks, I find the level of i. nteraction with my baby is rather limited, even though she's fascinating in her own way
It's so good to hear from you! It sounds like the girls and you are having a fantastic time. I second Thalia's request for a photo.
