Do the twins know/like each other at that age? Do they know when the other one is gone? Do they look for each other when separated? Are they partners in crime, working together to achieve common goals?
- Matthew DeVries
Matthew and Tina, absolutely. They jabber with each other many times a day, especially when we put them down for naps. They both stand up in their cribs and jabber and laugh at each other. They are rarely separated and they often play with the same toys.

Bless 'em! They're too cute for words! My parents used to call my baby teeth 'sharkies' because they were also razor-like :)

I just want to snuggle them. My "baby" (whose fave phrase is "What the hell is that?") doesn't have that baby smell anymore.

With cuteness like that, they could get away with murder.. they're so darn adorable..

I am so proud of myself, I can tell them apart!

So, this morning... I'm feeding Sarah and my leg gets real hot, real fast. Note to self, make sure diaper is completely sealed, or you just might get peed on.

Ha, we've already experimented with a 12-years old blogger (we were very young as a blog at the time as well so I hope it can be forgiven) but this new contributor will be even much younger :)

Baby Day #24 Observation: Babies may have preemptive scheduling. Pooping task preempts the feeding task. Feeding stops until after pooping is complete!
Sarah has had two throw-up explosions today (all spit-up/milk-related). The first was so good it came out her nose too, poor thing. And 10 minutes ago, she decorated our couch's throw pillow and she'll be soon changing into her 3rd outfit of the day. Matthew, on the other hand, is keeping everything down.
- Louis Gray
I don't know if there is a difference. Our son started to spit up milk more in the last ten days or so (he is 24 days old today). Couple of times they were pretty powerful and had good distance :) I read that if you lay them down right after feeding without letting some gas go, then they are very likely to throw-up.

I'd argue that each have their issues. Girls... well, as my sister exclaimed after two boys: "It's EVERYWHERE! How do you deal with all the nooks and crannies?" Then again, I've never had a girl pee into her own mouth.

pre-pregnancy I mocked these when we saw them in a store - after a couple of performance art pieces drawn on our wall and we now consider a folded paper towel a standard changing tool http://hipbabygear.com/accesso...

I love this thread. Cyndy, keep it up.

Have a 3 week newborn baby girl only. When we give her a brother I will let you know.
- Mike Fruchter
Cyndy only having a girl, i do agree with your points. Stuff does go every where and fast. As a daddy i have improved with the nooks and crannies situation. Babies momma was quick to point this out to me a few days ago.
- Mike Fruchter
10 days in, Matthew has not tried to spray daddy or mommy. And the nooks and crannies are navigable. BUT Sarah did try to hit me with a poop spray gun just now in mid-change. The changing table was a casualty, but I emerged safely.
- Louis Gray
Louis, I have CAUGHT VOMIT IN MY HANDS. And not baby spit-up either. ;) Mike, LOL. Leftovers we called them! It's even more fun when they get chunky and then there are little fat rolls and you lose track of where you've checked and where you haven't.
- Cyndy
Both have now opted to fill the changing table with their own pee and have it wet the backs of their clothes. But Sarah is the more inventive one. She likes to fill the diaper right after changing. Right after. It's as if she prefers a thin layer of poo to sit in. :-)

Part of my experience of seeing Hulk at the drive in was having the youngest vomit and my taking it all on my chest to save the car, the family and humanity. After the movie, rinsed shirt out in the bathroom sink with soap and the Vegas heat dried it out in about 5 minutes....
- Chris Reed
@Louis; this is exactly the situation we have. Our baby boy Arda also loves to fill in the clean diaper. Of course, not to mention the peeing right after opening him up :) We learned to give him some time to pee before we open him up completely!

Most amazing, on the post, there are comments from Marshall Kirkpatrick (RWW), Rafe Needleman (CNET) and Stan Schroeder (Mashable). Impressive! Guys, my daughter will be up to speed in a week. Who's up next? TechCrunch? The Inquisitr?
