What to write?  First day using the blog, and already trying to figure out what  to write. I guess the first that that I could do is give a little information on who I am. My name is Amanda Martinez, Married to Chris , and we have 1 month old twins (boy, and girl) Luck right. Taking care of the twins  has been quit a challenge. but it also has been one of the greatest blessing in our lives. I will try to chronicle as much as possible so that our children will have something to look back on. We are currently still trying to adjust to life with twins. Two babies crying and two babies needing constant attention. I feel bad when one needs more attention because I feel I am letting one down. I have been told that I can look forward to feeling guilty about  a lot of stuff. Both Melinda and Liam having been dealing with digestion issues and cry constantly after feedings. They seem to do well during the night but in the morning and right after we are putting them down for the night. We have been using the vacuum cleaner a lot to soothe them. I even bought a CD with vacuum cleaner sounds but our children are too smart and they can tell the difference. It is so funny to see them suddenly get happy and stop crying. We love to see the different expressions that Melinda has even when she sleeps. She has the girly sighs and sounds. Liam moans and groans when he sleeps. I think that this is a form of communication because sometimes Melinda joins. I have a feeling that he will be a talker. They both like car rides and walks in the stroller. I have even taken Liam on a car ride to help him fall asleep. Well that is it for now. I will update soon. Below are a few pictures of our Twins, Melinda and Liam.
