    It makes me miss my boys - 7 yr old twins.... my previous supervisor called them "The Gruesome Twosome". It was true... every day... so true! If the house stands up to it, I'm going to let things be as they are until they're a bit older and stop breaking stuff. They still complain that they don't have a doorknob. Told them to stop swinging across the room on it. Eh, doorknobs are overrated anyway. If I was home I could post photos and videos of their purple crayon wall mural. It looked like cave drawings LOL

    OMG! my son is a saint in comparrision to his little sister. i agree with your comment, she is pay back for any hell i raised in my childhood/teens, which was a lot! lol she has an obsession with creams, shampoos, conditioners, make up, sparkels, glitter and shrieking. she is also lightening fast and incredibly cute. every day comeone tells me how adorable, cute or beutiful she is...my answer is always "ya, and its a damn good thing for her too" lol. its fantastic.

    My son was at my parents house this weekend. My stepmom found him out side holding his little .22. He said he was going to kill a possum in the woods with his cricket!

    I had nicknamed my son "He who dances on Refrigerators" he was always climbing on top of it and many other places too. He was a runner, we had our door locked up with five different locks, (he would figure out every one of them) we joked around about it being fort knox. eventually I had alarms on the doors and windows. As a single mom, I couldn't even use the bathroom without some craziness from that child. He's now 18 and life is peaceful! :) Some days I actually miss the craziness, since my youngest is now 17. But it all leaves me with lots of fun memories. (Some scary ones too, but love laughing over the fun ones.)

    My youngest is 14, and quite frankly, I'm surprised that we've all survivied this long. But just be warned...you asked!!! :)

    Born with ear infection, 3 surgeries
    Split his eyebrow open, age 2 (got DCFS called on us for that one)
    Broke his thumb (in all fairness, not entirely his fault) and needed stitches
    Caught his finger in the door jam and crushed his finger, lost the nail
    fell and broke his jaw, and hit so hard that he lost his front tooth - (not quite 2 yet)
    broke his other thumb
    broke his left arm climbing a fence - age 7
    broke his right hand jumping a bike ramp - age 10 (and got severe road rash on his face)
    ripped his knee open jumping on a trampoline - 10 stitches
    ran into a brick wall at school, 12 stitches, really gross....
    shot himself in the eye with an airsoft gun, almost lost his vision
    locked himself in the YMCA locker - stuck for almost an hour before the owner could be contacted

    That's all I can think of for now....I'm sure more will come to me!! It's been a loooooong 14 years!!!

    My twins are now 20 but I think you may have gotten a similar pair. God felt sorry for me after the twins and gave me the no trouble whatsoever child. I do hope you make it through the teenage years with them. It is not easy.

    The youngins are physically exhausting, the teens and young adults are emotionally exhausting. lol
    Compared to the fun you will have when they are teenagers and young adults....that is a piece of cake.

    My twins are almost 3 and a half and I have to admit you have shown me things my children have not thought of yet. AND I hope they will not. Having twins is a whole different level of survival parenting.
