I should Make up a T-shirt (or perhaps a handy dandy flyer) that says:
Oh yes, they are "Double Trouble".
Yes, my hands ARE full.
And yes, we were very excited to get two.
Yes, we are "done."
Yes, twins sort of run in my family.
No, there are no more babies at home.
Yes, they are one boy, one girl; No, they're not identical (duh!) Please review science of how twins happen.
Yes, he's a lot bigger than she is. But they're still twins. (Really. He might be bigger, but do the math. How could he be a full nine months bigger? And if one wasn't mine, why in the world would I have forked over 230 bucks for a twin stroller??)
And NO to the chick at TJ Maxx (who was no skinny minnie herself)-- there is not another one ON THE WAY!!!!! How in the world would you ask that question, ever, unless you were really sure?!! I mean, I'm no Kate Moss, but I'm not THAT fat! I just had twins FOR CHRISSAKES!!
It made me need to eat some ice cream.
And then, at the bottom of the flyer, just for kicks and giggles, I will add "I'll be done with the dissertation this Fall." "Yes, it did take a while."
