Change is good, right?!

I'm deffinetely one for change.  So what do you think?  I like purple too, so why not.
Today was an ok day.  The girls had a bit of a crying fit this afternoon, but we got through it.  It's so funny the way it happens.  Delilah will be upset, then when she stops Clarisse starts up.  Then she stops and Delilah starts up again...do you think they do it 'cause they are twins and have a secret sensor or something...ahhh god knows.  I think I cried in between all the kaos, it frustrates me when I don't know why they cry. Arg...Such is life I guess.
It's a long weekend.  Wonder what tomorrow has in store.  Today we went to Trails End for the first time in weeks months.  Wasn't too bad.  Quite busy in the produce section, but not bad inside.  We didn't use the stroller, we used the carriers, which was a really smart idea.  After that we went to Gabraltar Market, wow, what ghetto...but it killed some time for us.  After supper we hit the mall for an hour, was nice...tire out the girls.  Knock on wood, they went to bed very easily tonight.  Fell asleep drinking bottles, thank you god.  For real though, thanks. 
Oh another fun fact; We bought another stroller.  It's pretty cool, it's like the Cadillac of strollers.  I'll post a pic.  We haven't used it yet, as it says for 6 months old...but we'll wait another 2 weeks or so and they use it. They'll be just over 5 months then and will fit well in it.  I think they are a tad small for it right now.  It's pretty big though.  We will have to load the girls in it, in the hallway as it doesn't fit through our doorway in the apartment, it's a double side by side.



Pretty sweet eh.  It's the BOB Revolution.  I can't wait to use it.  It glides like you're on ice, it's WONDERFUL.  
Well, that's all for tonight, I should get some sleep, since Delilah was up before 6am this morning, can you say YUK!

Happy Mother's Day

My very first Mother's Day was wonderful...I got the bestest gift ever, my very first family ring...Love it! Couple of really sweet cards from my girls and my husband and an amazing meal made by Marty and shared with my mother in law. All in all, I had a great day.  A successful first I would say.
Thank you Delilah and Clarisse, I love being your Mommy and I am so blessed to have you both in my life.  Thank you Marty for making me a Mommy, I love you, always.
Happy Mothers Day to My Mother, GG, Memere and all my friends and family who are Moms.  xox

No title today

Ok so I'm trying to figure out what I could blog about today...it's funny cause during my day I always think of all kinds of things I could write, but when the time comes to sit down and type I forget it all.  I have a horrible memory so what do ya do.
I envy all the people who blog regularly and always have interesting things to blog about.  Not to say my life isn't interesting...well, maybe not overly exciting, but with 2 twin girls to take care of everyday, things do deffinetely get interesting...
I'm so out of the loop with fashion, so I can't blog about that...not that I was ever very fashionable, but I certainly do love to pretend I know a little about fashion...and I can't really blog about food, cause I'm not really cooking much these days, and what I am cooking isn't blog worthy, I doubt you want me to blog about opening up a jar or can and adding ground chicken or turkey ... lol  I guess I can blog about being a mom/parent...I mean I am new, and what I would blog about would be mostly questions on what the heck to do in certain situations... I know I most deffinetely cannot blog about Fitness, cause I'll tell ya, that went out the window after the girls were born, but, I will say I have been walking every morning with them after their mid-morning feed...so ok I didn't totally abandon Fitness...I guess one step at a time.  After all it's only been 4 months since the girls were born, not to mention I had a section too...so there, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.  But really, it's time...time to get back to Eating Clean (http://www.eatcleandiet.com/) and getting back to my prebaby weight, then work on the rest...my goal is to have lost 60lbs by the time I go back to work.  There you heard it straight from my blog.  This will be the blog I will use from now on, my weightloss blog was great but I don't have the time to post on both, unfortunately.
So stay tuned for all the good stuff that will be leaked out of my brain...haha...Have I mentioned how absolutely gorgeous my babies are....

Here are my girls

Not sure if I even posted pics on the girls, if I did, well here are more...and if I didn't, here they are.
Life is full of excitement these days, between the beginning stages of teething, to sleeping through the night finally, to Clarisse rolling over and over and over...it's my own little paradise.  And it's about to get even more exciting, as Daddy is finally going back to work after being off for approx. 4 months.  So Mommy's on her own for the first time with her 2 girls.  Excited? Yes... Scared? YES, more like petrafied (sp?)  But I know it'll be ok...stay tuned....






One this is for certain, I am madly in love with these 2 little monkeys.  And the best thing of all, they are all mine...and Martys of course.

Life is fast

I haven't been much of a blogger lately.  Sorry.  Things have been moving in ultra speed the past few weeks.  Our days consists of feeding babies, changing babies, bathing babies...and then seeing them smile...just makes my day everytime I see it.  My girls are growing so fast, it sorta scares me. 
I know it sounds cliche and everyones seems to say it, but they do grow fast.  It's a very strange feeling to look at your child or new baby or newborn, however you wanna say it, and see them transform in front of your own eyes.  It's a feeling I can't really describe unless of course you have experienced it for yourself.
I am loving this stage tho.  They have just started to sleep through the night, thank you god.  They are laughing and smiling.  They are kicking and 'talking' in their own language of course.  It's just a overall fun time.  I just love them so much and couldn't imagine my life without them...well I can imagine it, I lived it once, but I'll never go back, nor do I want to.  Delilah and Clarisse are my sweetie pies, Mommys little Monkeys, my Baby boo boo's...to name a few.  Oh, and I can't forget, Daddy loves his girls too!
So on another note...I am feeling pretty gross about my body and weight these days.  I have officially gained all my weight that I worked so hard at loosing, back.  I am so disappointed with myself.  I just can't stop stuffing my face...sugar, fat, grease...it's absolutely disguisting.  I don't know what's wrong with me.  But I have decided, it's time to stop the madness and get back to Eating Clean.  Pulling my book out...and gonna get started.  The weather is starting to warm up...so walks on a daily basis with the girls too...I just need to get out there and do it.  And I will.  Monday. 
Stay Tuned.

Meshed I'd say..

It's true what they say...when you have a baby or in my case babies, all the days just mesh together.  You're whole life is based on a feeding schedule...it's amazing.  And going out is a bit of a production too...not as bad as I thought it might be with twins, but still a process in its own.
This past week has been quite a whirl wind...Marty finally got his surgery, the surgery we've been waiting for for over a year.  The surgery we hope will solve this godforsaken foot ulcer business we've been dealing with the past year.  Here's hoping.
The girls are doing so well...they are so cute and fun...and I'm not just saying that cause they're mine...they really are adorable babies.  :) 
But as cute as they are...life has been VERY challenging for me as well.  I've been feeling so overwhelmed with babies and my husband being out of commission, not to mention I have had some horrible back spasms that stop me dead in the stop when walking.  I was so afraid to even walk with one baby in my arms as I was afraid to fall.  But I kept saying to myself, god wouldn't let anything happen to me with my baby in my arms, and low and behold he didn't.  This turned out ok.  Been feeling a bit better the past couple of days...thank you god.  I know he watches over us.
I want to blog more.  It's not a Mommy blog or anything, but I will talk about my babies alot I'm sure.  But I want to blog about the things I love...which yes are my baby girls, my husband of course...also my love for photography, cooking, decorating, my friends and my family...fashion...fitness.  Which reminds me...I really need to get back to Eating Clean.  It's been fucking crazy the amount of sugar that I've been consuming.  Not sure if it's because I'm sleep deprived or what...but there isn't a day that goes by that I don't have something sweet...and it has to stop. 
I need to get back to my pre-baby weight and get back on the fitness wheel.  It depresses me to think that I have gained all the weight back.  Not any extra, THANK GOD, but still...so this week I'm going to organize my shit and get to it. I know I won't be able to make the gym, but I'll start with taking the girls out for walks, then we'll go from there.
Gotta start somewhere right?!? 
Well I should hit the hay, the girls are down, I need a few zzzz'z before they want to eat again.
I love my babies I love my husband not sure if I love me right now...I think that's first on my list of to-do's right.
