She LOVES to eat afterall!<br /><br />I definitely do not plan on buying two of everything. I think that they get grouped together enough. It will be important for them to grow as individuals as well. I like that - 'sharing is encouraged but not mandated.'Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053195426495332803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-7566219796189512092012-04-27T13:45:22.054-04:002012-04-27T13:45:22.054-04:00That's a great idea.

"Two hands, two toys" is a great one too -- I find that Quinn will take one toy after another, just so Teagan won't have one.Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053195426495332803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-7830899405813183172012-04-27T13:43:32.540-04:002012-04-27T13:43:32.540-04:00Not to alarm you, but that face screams "Give...Not to alarm you, but that face screams "Give me your milk money and no one gets hurt..." Haha! Adorable nonetheless :) <br /><br />My best friend is a twin and she mentions fairly often that the biggest downfall to being a twin is the expectation of sharing EVERYTHING from the time her and her sister were infants. Although it is impossible to always have two of everything available for the next 18 years or so, I would try to make sure Quinn and Teagan learn early that some things are going to be shared and others are simply not. Sharing encouraged but not mandated. Good luck!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01102396078361525531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-22873072577541868452012-04-27T13:42:57.601-04:002012-04-27T13:42:57.601-04:00Thanks for the comment Sarah!

We started enforcing the "two hands, two toys" rule so they wouldn't steal from each other just to hoard things. We also started helping the stealie keep the toy while reminding the other that you don't take toys out of another person's hands. After stopping the stealing, we set the timer for when they have to trade(usually 30 seconds or a minute). That worked surprisingly quickly, even at such a young age and it turned into a fun game.<br /><br />KellyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05896110901631454468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626561704201352431.post-31587104697038113442012-04-26T21:32:25.797-04:002012-04-26T21:32:25.797-04:00I just wanted to say that your girls are adorable ...I just wanted to say that your girls are adorable and have awesome names. On a side note, we must have very similar taste because I have 3 daughters whose names are Riley, Teagan and Finley (Finn)! Crazy huh?? My Finn is a big bully too (she is 12 months old) and can easily make her 4 year old sister cry.<br />-SarahThe Barter-Levine Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10429658521253094353noreply@blogger.com
