Twins vs. Singleton.

So many girlfriends of mine are getting preggo and while I am so happy for them, sometimes I feel a bit envious. 

I will never have that easy breezy first couple of years spending every moment with your baby. I won't ever be able to leave my house with a moby wrap and just cruise around babe in tow. To add to it, I won't always feel like I am doing every thing possible to further my kids growth and development because I don't have that special time. Sometimes I use their swings too much when they are crying, and a lot of times a feel guilty for them maybe not being developmentally where other kids are. 

{I am hoping that part of this is just normal mom guilt. Haven't quiet figured it out yet.}

But, what are the pros and cons of twins vs. a singleton? 

Cons

1. When I get pooed on, its double time. Awesome. 
2. The hubs and I are constantly bargaining things to see who gets up or gets the "fussy one"
3. You are always in a race. Race to finish first eating {this is actually fun} and race to the changing table..{this one isn't fun}
4. Leaving the house is a chore. No Joke. No matter what, usually one babe is crying inside the house while I am loading the other one in the car.

Pros

1. When those friends are on baby numero dos, I will have toddlers and hopefully {fingers crossed here} they will be sleeping awesome. 
2. They will always have a play mate. Granted at this point they are just swatting at each other, I am sure that will change. 
3. I get to see my kids grow together. It is the neatest thing to see my two babes grow and change and be together. 
4. I know that they will always have a special bond.. maybe sometimes more than just being a brother and sister.
5. I don't know any different, and honestly.. I don't think I could imagine anything else at this point. 

So here is to the pros always outweighing the cons and to more moments like this...
