One great piece of advice that we received before becoming parents was that we could ignore a large percentage of the advice that people will give us. And it’s so true.

Every baby is different so a large amount of the advice given to you won’t be relevant.

Our twins are just over 4 months old now and it’s already apparent that they are two very different little people. What works for Twin 1 doesn’t work with Twin 2 and vice-versa. What makes one twin laugh results in a deadpan face from the other.

It’s a really wonderful experience to see how they interact with the world differently and how they are developing different skills at different speeds. Twin 1 has been able to roll from back-to-front for 3 weeks already, where as Twin 2 isn’t quite there yet but they’re much better at grabbing things and hand-eye coordination.

Watching them grow up side-by-side really emphasises how unique they are and it’s a beautiful thing to see.
