My boys are little but starting to do some of the things you mention here. I can only hope and pray that they continue and that my boys can become as close as yours are.

One of the boys will get an ice pack and always gets a 2nd for his twin. No matter which one starts it. If a stuffie is searched out - his twins stuffie is also found. If one gets a cookie - so does the other. They don't seem to do this with their older siblings yet. The differences are their stuffies are different, their fave items are different - their blankets, their toys - yet they think of the other when they do play with or get something. I love this part of the bond.Tamikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09641837820739521780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352904249815125802.post-75754844717230516212011-04-19T12:05:08.746-04:002011-04-19T12:05:08.746-04:00We have a lot of the same going on at our house. ...We have a lot of the same going on at our house. If I have to fuss at one twin, the other twin tells me to quit being mean to his brother! If I'm passing out treats, they have to make sure the other gets one. Hayden always looks for Thomas stuff for Jack, Jack always looks for scooby stuff for Hayden. They have "their own" shirts and jammies as well as many they share. They seem to understand better than my oldest that being part of a family means sometimes doing things to make one person happy (like when we went to see Thomas the Train...that was mainly for Jack) but that is what families do and it's nice to see the people in our family happy.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11865174900829735332noreply@blogger.com
