SEE YOUR TWINS ON TWINSIGHTS!
Would you like to see your twins featured on a weekly update of Twinsights? Send us a digital image (jpeg or gif), the twins' names as you'd like them to read on site, their age in the photo, and your city/state/province or residence if you'd like that included. If you feel so led, include a sentence or two about your feelings on twin parenting. You might just see your sweeties on Twinsights.
** If you have submitted a photo in the past two weeks, you will be hearing from us soon...thank you for your patience!**
Would you like to be placed on our Twinsights email list (never shared or sold), click here and let us know! (1-2 emails are sent on average monthly...only for special events/contests/opportunities.) Reminder: Twinsights is updated weekly, and we don't send a weekly email to remind. Please be sure to check back every Monday morning!
QUESTION & RESPONSE
So your babies are just starting to twinteract, and now upgraded carseat protection might prohibit mid-travel communication?
Be sure to read this week's brand-new Q&R!
TWIN TALES
Creator of Chrysanthemum, Lilly, Sheila Rae, Owen, Julius...
Chances are you are already familiar with the work of Caldecott Award winning children's book author/illustrator, Kevin Henkes.
He's hands down one of our twins' favorites, and a new DVD version of his story Chrysanthemum (narrated by the inimitable, Meryl Streep) has just been released.
We had the wonderful opportunity to pose some questions, and Mr. Henkes was gracious enough to answer!
Check out our Twin Tale this week for a special conversation with Kevin Henkes.
CONTEST WINNERS!
As any twin mama will attest, some times it's simply impossible to pick one favorite. Such was the case with our recent Twinsights contest, so TWO winning mini-essays are posted for this our Mother's Day week update, and each will receive a signed copy of Twinspiration!
Please be sure to read the winning submissions by Katie Harris and Chrissy Powers on our Contest Winners page; and many thanks to ALL who entered...your stories were all wonderful!
**Be sure to check back next week for a brand new contest!**
WHAT HAPPENED TO DOUBLE BABY BOOK CLUB?
All good things either come to an end or evolve...and such is the case with our Double Baby Book Club page. While the page did receive significant visitation, it's the "low-ranker" on our site. As we hope to increase our number of contests and inclusions of reader submitted writings, we are retiring the Double Baby Book Club page as we know it, and are going to "free up" a page for a variety of incoming/current content.
Thank you to all who've commented and contributed to DBBC.
HOWEVER...we are STILL a reviewing family! If anything, we're ADDING to our volume of content we'd like to recommend -- or suggest you avoid. This week, we've debuted "Liner Notes from the Lage Twins: Multiples and their Mama Talk Media." If you are seeking tips on how to find the top-notch, and how to dodge the terrible, check it out!
TWICE THE MOTIVATION...
We've begun a listing of twin family blogs on our Twinternet connections page. We are adding new blogs weekly, so be sure and check 'em out!
This week we've added twin mom Terri's fantastic blog "LittleOl'LadyLivedinaShoe." Be sure to take a peek!
If you have a twin-family blog or website, or read a favorite one regularly, share it with Twinsights!
