I don't have twins but my sister does. She kept them in the same crib till they were about 6 months old. Prior to that if she tried to separate them there were much fussier and didn't sleep well. I guess they missed their brother. ALl was well when they slept together. SHe separated them at 6 months because by hten they started crawling around and that caused most sleep disturbances than being separated.
You are not a dork Tara! I have a red sweater I wore the day I found out I had a missed miscarriage. It is my unlucky sweater. Since I have very few work clothes I've been forced to wear it since a few times, but I'm extra nervous wearing it now with my BFP.
I'm here, apparently I'm just going to stay in my pj's for day #2- yesterday DD was sick and I didn't shower til night, then pj's back on, today I have yet to make it out of my pj's again, perhaps another shower and back into pj's for one more day!
Your hubby sounds just like me. Everything my hubby likes, I seem to have a relative named that. It doesn't help that my mom is one of 13 kids, and I have about 30 cousins now, over half who have kids of their own and then there is all my second cousins (and that's where all the names of people I don't really like come in). Plus it seems all of the names we both actually LIKE begin with E and since our last name begins with Z I refuse to use those names. I think giving a kid the initials EZ would just be cruel. We never really had a name picked out for my daughter because we thought we'd have oodles of time to discuss it in the hospital. (Both my boys were relatively long labors and I was quite coherent and quite bored during the process) However, she decided to enter the world with a blink of an eye and thus we had to use our "backup" name for her even though it wasn't exactly what either of us wanted.

Pardon me for busting in - I'm lurking and hope to be here soon.
Oooops!! I guess I forgot to tell you guys, that this room we are building is for the both of them, because all the other rooms are occupied!!
On that note, did your twins sleep in the same crib or different ones?
