    I haven't seen the final cut. I'm more worried about whether you will all still talk to me :o

    It'll be interesting to see whether they leave in the mention I made of this website :D

    Oh-oh, you called us all the weirdo folk from the internet didn't you? :p:rotfl:

    I'm now !!!!ed that sky wont let me set it to record so far in advance. So I've noted it down on my homework schedule! :rotfl:

    Making a cake aint exactly going to over exert her. :cool:

    Was thinking more of the heat and standing on the feet with twins inside.

    She can do most of it sitting down and she can cook most things.

    Caz, Amazon has trunkis down to £25 delivered. But ah dunno... they are cute, but £25 for an over night bag? Even if it is a sit and ride.

    And I spelt it wrong.

    Thaila - pronounced Tyler.

    ;)

    I thought the first version was a really cool sounding name...

    i reckon that name would constantly be spelt wrong... and as someone who always has to correct people spelling my name, its a real pain in the backside... which is a real shame because thats a really sweet name too
    i'm a sucker for a unique name...

    :p

    GP asked for explanation of L's name, and I said "Its American now but comes from olde English"

    And then she said "I thought it might have been"
    OK I know the woman has gone to medical school, but as if she knew that! :rotfl:

    Then explained, married in NYC, Landen was then conceived on our return trip there, and the footballer (of same name) scored on Landen's due date :T

    If she stops doing everything she is going to find it a long 9 months. And a twin pregnancy is not that much different from a singleton pregnancy.

    Think we may have to look into a double buggy in the next day or two now it's all official - anyone have any positive reviews?
    I have the Jane Powertwin double and really like it, i have the one with the air tyres and its great to push and very easy to get around(also downhill as it has a bike brake on the handlebars)
    I would also say to look at the Icandy pear/peach as they are lovely looking doubles but were too fiddly for me??? each part has to be taken off before it can be folded which would be ok with 2 of you but not if you are on your own.

    Mel loves her side by side double i think its the mountain buggy?

    Cots i dont know but i would probably have the twins in together?

    Landon Donovan. Very American guy. Perfect for your experience.

    Lucy's first choice begins with 'Y'

    7 now and she isn't. She has many interests. She's getting back into her art and crafts which she loves and we'll be out alot buying for babies. As good as she is at cooking, it's down her list of priorities.

    Twins mother found twin pregnancy very different. I remember the differences to myself and the way things were, let alone how she coped with them.

    I'll jot them down so we can have a butchers online. Thanks.

    I'm debating as to whether it would be ideal to have the twins in together. The older twins worked well seperately and by experience, i'm swaying towards that again.
