The twins never had a favorite toy.But now adays a few things seems to grab their attention more.
1.Books
Books,the big picture board books are a big hit in our house.Ishu was always interested in books.She hates the small board books,period.Devu didnt care for books at all;neither big nor the small ones.She used books mainly to throw,bend or stand on to reach stuff.She started to notice books about a month ago and seems fascinated by them.Two of the fav seems to be the My first word and number book.
2.Bloks..
Devu loves them.It is the only thing that grabs her concentration and interest for long time.
2.Aquadoodle
The one where you can paint with water..Ishu loves it..She says that she drawing poova(flower) and bathataa(butterfly).I love love love the aquadoodle.Its awesome for a lousy sketcher.Somehow my doodles comes out good too.
Seems like I have a few things in order with which i can bribe them,HA!!!!!

And its back,sigh!
The tears shedded in regards to the carseat,car and travel.We really thought that Devu's anxiety with cars was over for good. But it came back with a bang.
Last weekend we drove around town with a screaming baby for 2 hrs.She was nonstop.
This weekend we didn't even make it to the carseat.Devu started bawling as soon as I took her to the garage after getting her dressed up.

Childrens park
The twins are 18 mosold ,but they have never been to a children's park until last week.The major reason is that I am lazy and overcautious.
Devu did not like the swings nor did she want to get out of her stroller.Ishu wasn't huge fan of the swing either ,but she sat on our lap and tried it once. Devu got scared for Ishu and got us off out the swing by shrieking on the top of her lungs.
They loved the slides and tunnel, but got distracted by the wood chips on the ground..

Things that can bring on the panic attacks
1.Temperature above 100.
2.A mere thought of a febrile seizure.
3.Stuffy,sniffly nose and going crazy over the chances of an earinfection (dealing with it right now)
4.Misplacement of my forehead thermometer.
5.Strange cough and going crazy over a possible infection.
6.Tugging ears which could be a sign of an earinfection.
7.Administering any kind of medicine ; tears,fight and vomiting involved in the process are unbearable.
8.Just one bottle of infant tylenol or motrin in the cabinet. 2 of each is a minimum must.

26 weeks-Complications & Bedrest
The pregnancy was easy breezy until the 26th week.We did our regular ultrasound and checkups with our doc who referred my pregnancy to be a textbook pregnancy.Our nurse and us would chat for hours.There was the regular check of cervical length which was 3 or 4.In a textbook pregnancy,the length reduces to 1 and lower as the due date approaches.
The technician paged for the doctor when it was found that the length has gone down to1.2 It was not a good sign because it is associated to preterm labor.I remember crying expecting the worst and asking thenurse whether the kiddos will make it if they decide to come out this early.
The doctor looked into details & put me on complete bedrest .I was allowed to get up to eat and take bathroom breaks .The next ultasound,after 2 weeks showed that the length was still at 1.2.Thankfully,the bedrest was workingto keep it consistent.Week after week on bed makes you lose your mind,but it was for the best.I continued the bedrest up until the end of the pregnancy.
NST's started at 32 weeks.Deva-Baby A,the breech baby who was squished up due to lack of space always failed the test.The machine could never pick up her heart rate,and we would end up in doing an ultrasound to check .
At about 35 weeks.the fluid surrounding Deva started decreasing.The doctor told that if the fluid decreases more the next day,she will do an emergency C-section. By gods grace and heartfelt prayers of our parents and family,nothing changed and I was allowed to carry them a few more days
The delivery was at 37w5d on July 13,2009.They were 5lb 10 oz and 5 lb 15 oz each.

First Ultrasound -Dec 2008
I have been wanting to pen down our twin ultrasound experience for quite some time.errmmm..2 years to be exact.We had our first ultrasound at 8 or 9 weeks;the date was Dec 17.Our doctor,monitor and everything else was set and the procedure began.The doctor stopped and showed us a small flickering followed by a heartbeat sound .It may have taken 15 sec to get the flickering;it felt like hours because of the anticipation and tension.
I was tensed and M was extremely overwhelmed when we heard the heartbeat.
A few seconds into the scan,the doctor goes AND.I remember asking him,is there more???He says yep,seems like it.Eventhough we knew that the chances of multiples were high,the feeling was disbelief .In a couple of seconds,we got to see another flicker and the sweet heartbeat of Baby B.The heart beats were 117 and 119.
This is the first ultrasound picture
