How Different Are My Twins

I never realised some two and a half years ago when I first started this blog how relevant the title “In Between the Tapas and Tantrums” would become.

My original idea for the title as a completely new comer to blogging was firstly a general look at living on the Costa del Sol, hence “Tapas” and also as a sort of journal about the life and development of my twin daughters, the “Tantrums” part that they would eventually have as a nice sort of log of their childhood and growth and maybe also for them to continue for their own children.

I noticed the other day however, how much the title of the blog summed them both up perfectly!

At thirty three months old they have really started developing into little people in their own rights and how different they are.

Laura is the “Tapas” and could eat for Europe!

Rebeca is the “Tantrums” and never stops’ trying to get here own way and is constantly screaming for attention!

In fact she is so demanding, I think if we hadn’t had twins and Rebeca had been our first daughter we definitely wouldn’t have had any more children!

Our twins are fraternal but I also hear from parents of identical twins how different their twins can be.

What are your thoughts or experiences?

I would like to turn this site into an open forum for all Parents of Twins and Multiples where we can share our experiences and offer help to other Parents looking for answers to specific problems.

Please feel free to leave any comments below, all input is much appreciated.

I would also love to hear about your own personal and funny experiences bringing up your twins, please forward them to me at: tapasandtantrums@gmail.com quoting "Bringing up twins" in the subject line and I'll feature them here over the forth coming weeks.
