I said, " they have been sharing my boobs from day one why should the spoon be any different!" I also agree that the day will come (probably sooner than I realize) that "they" will have a say in what they wear or eat or play with, etc, etc. but until then I'm gonna make life as easy I can!

For feeding it is just more practical, and really...have you tried to keep sippies from toddlers seperate? Ain't happening!!!! We did (and still do) share spoong, sporks, and sippies.

And I can say from experience that the time will come when things are more individualized. For now,whatever works best is the right approach. Enjoy them during this stage!

Goodness, i couldn't imgaine making two seperate meals and feeding them with two seperate spoons. I did try..but it was TOO much work. Then i also tried to MAKE SURE they each had their own sippy cups...my 3.5 year old had her OWN sippy cup and NO ONE drank after the other, etc. I GAVE THAT UP after a few rounds of sickness hit them all anyway. Now it's a free for all of everything..it sounds bad but it's really actually easier now. I actually DO want them all to get whatever the first one that gets sick has...that was we'll get it all over with sooner...they are going to get it either way...i KNOW THIS because i've done it over and over again. Each mommy chooses their own way of doing things and chooses whether they want their twins to be individulas..i like mine to be one unit for now, because i KNOW one day they WILL want to be their own individuals and there will be nothing i can do later. So for now, i'll enjoy the time i have dressing them alike, feeding them the exact same foods, and watching them grow into two little individuals with time.
