Jump Start

Since some time in February when I first learned the babies' sex, I've also been following this cute cartoon in which the cartoon mom is pregnant with twins. They're boy/girl twins, and sometimes you see "inside" the womb to have the twins talk. Today, for example, is a twin day. It's really funny how many of these little cartoons have been similar to events that have gone on for us. Sometimes I wonder if there's some sort of "bug" in the house-- how the heck else could he get some of these things so "right"? I have two of them on my fridge-- one of them from when the twins were wiggling, and when the dad tried to feel the mom's tummy, they held very still, with big, scared-looking eyes, and the word balloon read "is he gone yet?" The other has the little girl twin sarcastically telling the boy "I'll try to help you as much as humanely possible." I can totally see Maia & Sean having little conversations like that. And I fully expect Maia to be a bit of a know-it-all-- if she's anything like her mommy, that is. :)

The little girl twin in the cartoon is kind of a smarty-pants, while the boy is a bit of an exhibitionist, (as you'll see if you go there today) and a little more silly. I've saved the majority of the twin-in-womb cartoons and plan to print them out and put them in the babies' scrapbook one of these days. If you go to the link, you can see the last thirty days worth for free- not all of them are twin days, but the cartoon itself is entertaining too.

Anyway. This still doesn't count as the inspirational, poetic or literary post I'm going to try to write today. But I have been meaning to mention Jump Start here, and just read my morning fix. And so. :) Soon, off to the docs for my "non-perfect pregnancy" issues.
