Twins for a Night

Tonight I had the wonderful opportunity to babysit my bosses kids. By kids I mean his two year old twins Jordan and Jackson. I have always said that if I were to have twins I would want them to come first so that when I had more children they would be easy comparatively. Well I take that back. They are the sweetest boys and at this age they are so freakin funny. I just had a riot. I do babysit pretty regularly for various people and I would say that I am pretty good with kids, but TWO 2 year olds sure gave me a run for my money. I think with having two kids might be different than having twins (although I am only guessing due to not having kids). If you can only imagine they have two of everything. You would think that would solve all the problems but no it doesn't. They always want what each other has. Not to mention that they feed off each other and so they are into trouble in no time. If one has a toy and is it down the stairs, then the other gets a bigger toy and throws it down the stairs. If one is in the green box the other wants to be in the green box too. It was like this with everything.







I can honestly say I love children. I want so many of my own. Until I have my own I get my children fix from babysitting, which I really enjoy. So all you who have children and ever need a helping hand please call. So how do you entertain two year old boys. By watching Monsters Inc. three times, building a long train track and setting up the trains (ok I have to be honest and say I think I enjoyed this more than they did)




Their mom Amy Worthington painted their room with Lightening McQueen and she did such an awesome job. I fell in love with it. The best is that they are always dresses alike which makes them so cute right now!

Anyway I had a great night!

I have always thought it would be great to have twins, I also wanted to have them first before I had any other kids, but I think you're right, one is enough! Especially when they're two.
Those boys are so cute. I love their names.

Can you imagine those moms who have had like 6 kids at once?? That would be crazy! That's so funny how you said you had more fun with the toys- I feel like I always get into projects or toys more than the kids do, and then I have to try and talk them into staying excited about it so we don't have to move on to the next activity. You are going to be such a cute mom!! Thanks for the nice comment on my blog- I didn't know if anyone else would think that video was funny=). Hopefully see ya soon!! Love ya!
