Multitasking


I've never been one to sit around and twiddling my thumbs... not that thumb twiddling isn't an awesome skill... I'm just not that coordinated.... plus I have way to much to do.  I'm that girl who watches movies while crafting or cleaning.  I do the dishes while moping the floor. I can't have a phone conversation without scrubbing something. well having twins has taken it to a whole new level.

Now most everything I do I do one handed.and believe me I can do a lot, but my never ending pile of laundry, sink full of dishes and sticky kitchen floor is proof that something take two hands.  Right now at my house if it can't be done with one hand it probably wont get done... at least until Cameron gets home from work....  

I have developed a whole assortment of skills I never imagined possible. for instance one day I discovered that I can feed one baby while changing the diaper of the other... there are no pictures, if someone had been around to take a picture I would have had them change the diaper.  I can also text and type while holding one or even two babies.... someone in this family has to keep in touch with the outside world...  Cameron came in from doing something and took this picture of me because he couldn't believe that I was texting, and typing at the same time while holding both babies... (in this picture it looks like Lilly is laying on top of Peter, she's not really) I can also feed a baby while posting on my blog.... oh wait that's what I'm doing right now.

And sometimes it's nice to just sit, love, and hold my babies.
