I have said this before. But there are some days or minutes with twins when you are just like... oh my god when will this be over? I think this is the first weekend where I haven't felt that. Sure, we still can't do everything we want to do and the girls aren't totally managed at all times, but things went really smoothly this weekend. On Saturday, we took the girls for their first trip to Target. They slept through the whole thing.

Of course, I will never ever get used to the on-lookers. The women who ask me how I get them both to sleep at once. The questions from every grandmotherly type in the world. How old are they? Are they twins? A boy and a girl? Are they identical. Well, they don't look alike to me. Then there are the women who say, "oh, i always wanted twins." As if twins were something that someone would choose for themselves. I always wanna say, "that is nice, but really naive." I also get the question, "are they yours?" alot. I mean alot. I wonder why that is? Is it my hair? My non-mom attitude? I shouldn't complain about all the questions. People truly do get a lot of enjoyment out of asking them. And in the future, it will most likely help the girls to not be shy if they get to talk to stranger so much.

Then yesterday, things weren't too bad, either. The girls are going through a growth spurt, so they wanted to eat and eat and eat. But that was ok. Between feeding and bouncing and playing with various bunnies and bears dressed in bunny suits, Jeff and I each got to do things that we wanted to do. He got to read and play Xbox. I got to add items to my store. I even set it up so that you can write reviews of my silliness. During all those feedings, we were watching Arrested Development Season Two on DVD. Comedy always makes life easier.

Last night, I was watching the new Ricky Gervais show, Extras. I got so into it that even though I was holding a baby, I forgot for a while that I even had babies. This is good and bad and kinda mixed me up a bit. I had been thinking that I couldn't be wowed by art or televison or movies anymore. But this proved that wrong. That show is so funny and touching all at once. It took me away from my responsiblities for just 30 minutes. Thank you, Mr Gervais.
