Twin - O - Rama 2012!

On Wednesday, we had 9 children, including three sets of identical twin 18 month old girls at our house for a play date.  It was fun but everyone was exhausted afterwards.  It was great to see other twins that had the same twin to twin syndrome the girls had and they are doing so great.  These are families we met in the NICU at OSU and it has been very nice to keep in touch.  They all have an older sibling as well which makes it nice.  Miles unfortunately is the only boy but I think he kind of liked it!

Here is the progression of the day.  Everyone started out by playing with toys. 

Then the ball popper was a huge hit!

Notice Miles on the couch.  He was a "mean monster" for the first 20 minutes everyone was here.  We had to have a talk about how not everyone likes to play like that.

Then it was time for lunch.  The Clark girls were the only ones that really wanted to eat. 

Malorie was into it too but everyone else was off playing.  Notice Miles eyeing the fruit loops in the baby cup. 

Notice again, what he has his eyes on.  Lunch was kind of a free for all.  Take food off of any plate that looks good and eat it. 

Here are the rest of the children playing on the swing set.  Most have lost their clothes by now. 

Finally, they ended up in the water.  Then some water ended up on some sand on top of the picnic table and then sand ended up everywhere.  It was tons of fun for everyone and luckily, all of this happened outside so I could simply hose it all off.
