Sweet. How the twins will relate to each other in the future is an unknown, but I think it will be good. While you already have your own grandchildren, aren't these from your own blood so special.
Andrew; they are very special, the others are all from my own blood too, from my older children. This is my youngest, my "baby boy", now with babies of his own.
Arkansas Patti; it will be a while, there is a weight limit they must reach before leaving the hospital. And they must also be feeding without the tube, at the moment they are combining tube feeding with breast feeding.
messymimi; I have seen them, last Saturday. the hospital is restricting visitors to one at a time because of covid and flu, so we are all taking turns.
Oh, how absolutely fabulous! What a precious picture. Hope they get home soon. There are quite a few sets of identical twins in my family. I have twin nephews, twin nieces and twin cousins! One nephew was so frail when he was born he was baptised in hospital! That was 40 years ago. He' grew up to be a 6ft rugby playing builder!
This article in yesterday's paper caught my eye. Looks like mould to me. But. Forget the sensational headline for a minute and focus on the can. Notice how it's a little blackened around the bottom rim? I'm not sure it shows, but it looks like the can has been standing in wet conditions, the wrapper looks a little wrinkled too at top and bottom. Was it like this when it was bought? If yes, why buy it? If no, then how was it stored in the home environment? Use by date. Usually irrelevant, unless the can has been opened. We all know that once a can is opened the contents need to be used immediately, especially baby foods. She mentions somewhere in the story that the contents appeared "a bit runny". This happens when food is given to the baby directly from the can, (or jar) with saliva from the baby's mouth being transferred to the contents, which then begins to break down the molecular structure of the canned food. This isn't immedia...
Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections. A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. In memory of Elephant's Child, the meme is now continued by myself and a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Starting this week with a "wish" who remembers cupping one of these in the palm of your hand, making a wish and then blowing it away? If it flew up and away your wish was supposed to come true. I dug around in the pot where I had planted pieces of a sprouting potato and came up with these tiny morsels, the coffee mug is for size reference. Did I already show this recently? I bought a couple of "Heirloom" tomatoes fo...
Welcome to 2026! I hope this is a good year for everyone, hopefully even better than last year. Try not to fall over folks, it's not fun. 🌞🎈🎉 Coming to you from sunny Australia, that big lump of land under the equator. Sunday Selections will be continuing, hosted by me , participation is optional, if you can't manage every week for any reason, that's okay. Words for Wednesday will also be continuing, hosted by me , and again, participation is optional, play when you can, take a break when you need to. Charlotte will be providing a colour for each month as she did last year, we try to use the colour somewhere in our posts, either photographing something with that colour or using it in another way. This month's colour is Carmine: Isn't that just gorgeous? And why is my text in two different sizes?
Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; aren't they just! I'll have to be sure not to overdo the photos, they really don't look much different from one day to the next.

DeleteThat is definitely a proud papa! Great photo.
ReplyDeleteVal; he is very proud, in part because he is the only one in the entire family to produce twins, and that includes past generations, on both sides.
DeleteThey are just precious, i hope you will get to see them in person soon.
ReplyDeletemessymimi; I have seen them, last Saturday. the hospital is restricting visitors to one at a time because of covid and flu, so we are all taking turns.
DeleteI love this so much..

ReplyDeleteMargaret D; thank you, I love them to bits already.

ReplyDeleteAMKT; there are no twins at all anywhere in my family, nor in the mother's family, so this is new to all of us.
DeleteGod bless.
