They are still in diapers with their second. Enjoy your babies!

Hello

I notice your two kiddies that are close together are a Boy & a Girl ~ Do you think they are just as close as if they were the same gender?

Yes, maybe they'd be even closer since they'd like the same girl/boy toys. But, as it is, they do play a lot together, as well as separate off once in a while. It's been fun watching them grow up. I just wanted to pop on an give some encouragement since I've been there! We're glad we planned them close. Actually, I'm a little worried about my 5+ year age gap with the new one, but the kids really want a baby and I'm sure it will all work out.

Excited, scared. I'm coping by reading lots and trying to prepare for it as best as I can.

I'm also really interested to see what double's people are looking at getting! the idea of pushing around a huge double buggy is freaking me out!

The one I mentioned above that I have ordered is a side by side double, suitable from newborn...and fits through a single doorway
