"Hug 'til you hit the rug" is the name of this game.

Man, I just love that top picture. It perfectly captures the sweet friendship that Kate and Lily have as twins. Moments like these make me truly laugh. I mean TRULY laugh. The most surprising thing to me about being a twin toddler mom is the fact that I can vascilate between sheer exhaustion and frustration to utter happiness and amazement within the same hour. The girls are drawing near to the "terrible twos" where they can completely destroy a room in 15 minutes flat. We're talking complete destruction... from finding any stray knives left on the counter, to sucking the toothpaste straight from the tube, to mixing the cats food and water together, to shaking all the coke cans so they are ready to fizz, to putting all "trash"(ie their toothbrushes and other useful items) in the kitchen trash can, to finding and eating yesterdays green beans from behind the highchair, and jumping as high as they can off the couch. And then, in the middle of the craziness...they start doing something as captivating as this awesome hug...and somehow they are the sweetest angels God ever made...and I am the most blessed woman on earth!
