My kids LOVE candy just like their Mama. Everyday they ask for some variation of candy, lolli, ice cream, etc. This candy addiction really helps me when I want to get some photos of them together. It goes something like this:

Me: Will you hold hands?
S&H: NO! Bleh!
Me: If you hold hand for two minutes and walk that way towards the candy store we’ll go inside and pick out a special candy for you.
S&H: Immediately grab each others hands and head towards the candy store.
Too bad when we got there the candy store had closed down. =( This little shopping center is SO stinking cute most of the stores have closed their doors. It is so sad.

And one of my little handsome man Heaten Bear.

Awwww, don’t they look like BFF’s in this photo?!? So before you read the paragraph below and think I’m smoking crack, just know that little candy bribery goes a LONG way in our house when it comes to picture taking. =)

So tell me great twin Mommies - are your childrens trying to battle it out on a minute by minute basis and CONSTANTLY hitting, pushing, head butting one another or is it just mine?!?!?!? It is non stop and driving me batty. One minute they are playing and then next Heaten has Shenzie in a hair lock pulling while she is pounding him on the head like a cave woman. He head butts her, I move him away and she comes tearing over and wacks him one before I can even blink. I tried letting them just go at it in hopes they would figure it out, but they always come crying to me to kiss their ouchies better. “Nenee do it” is what I hear most of the time from Heaten. I will say Shenzie beats up Heaten far more than he does her. Hahahahah, once again I’m reminded of myself when I was little beating up my older brother Daniel. And now that I think about it I remember us battling from the time I was little until he moved out when I was 14. I remember as a teenager punching him as hard as I could in the jaw and then running like hell to get away. He broke down the door trying to get to me while I cowered in the corner crying. So I suppose this fighting is just natural sibling crap that is going to go on and on and on and on. Any tips from you seasoned pro’s on how to handle the battles. If I put them in time out every time they fought they’d never leave the corner! The fighting usually only happens at home. When we are out at a park, playdate, or preschool they aren’t fighting so maybe we should just move away from here to stop the battling. =)

And now onto the funniest thing thats happened lately. Yesterday morning before Jeff left for work he heard Heaten on the couch crying, “Its too tight, its too tight”. Upon investigation Jeff found that Heatens undies were too tight due to his morning woody and since Heaten has NO idea what was going on, only that his undies were too tight he was crying and pulling at himself. Hahahahahah, poor little dude has a life time of too tight undies to look foward too!!!!

On a side note, is it really March?!!?!?!? Holy moly, talk about time flying and all of that!

This is my good friend Janae’s beautiful little girl. You may remember her as a teeny tiny newborn, and oh my, how she has grown!!!

So I am jumping on the old barn wood rug wagon and Janae’ was kind enough to loan me her baby so I could test it out (among other “studio” props). Thank you Janae’, you know I just want to steal Baby G away and smooch her little rolls all day long!!!
