Twin bond

I haven't written anything lately about what these girls are up to. They are growing and changing in amazing ways every day and we continue to be amazed by them and enjoy every second of it.

The cutest thing lately, in my opinion, is how they are starting to interact with each other more. When kids this age play together, they are really just playing next to each other independently. But slowly, these girls are starting to interact with each other more, without mommy and daddy prompting them or asking them to share. On a few occasions now, I have watched them start making silly noises at each other, then start to giggle. Sometimes one will start throwing small toys in the air, and the other will start doing it too, followed by both girls bursting out in belly laughs. If we're lucky, we get to watch them give each other hugs, kisses or a nice little pat as if they're saying, "that was fun, and I really like you." I think most people assume twins will automatically grow up to be best friends, but it is still great to watch it happening and see that they do enjoy each other's company. It's nice to know they aren't always just thinking, "why am I forced to play with that annoying kid that likes to steal my toys?"

I keep raving to friends with kids about how fun this age is and how much I'm loving it. And I'm happy to hear it will only keep getting better!
