Because …

… once, when frustrated with something Fenway was doing, she said “I’m gonna punch that cat.”

… before we actually got our Wii, it was a frequent weekend activity for us to go to Best Buy and play Beatles Rock Band for free

… she is scheming with other women in my life, who will remain nameless, to get me to grow “star-burns” like the character on “Community”

… she has recently realized how truly and dearly she loves comedic wordplay

… she frequently yells at Democrats in Congress to “Get some ovaries,” which is her equivalent of “sack up!”

… she ran two half marathons and a 10K last fall, and she absolutely hates running

… she is a Harvard graduate who still doesn’t seem to understand the difference between single-camera TV shows and muti-cam shows, no matter how many times I explain it to her

… she loves HGTV even though, I’m convinced, every single show is exactly the same

But especially because …

This summer, we are having twins!

Yep, no joke, people.  It’s true.  Our due date is late July, but twins often come early.  We knew our lives were going to change when we got pregnant, but, well, I guess we decided not to kick and we’re going for the two-baby conversion.

For this reason, I have begun a new video blog here – http://twindadblog.blogspot.com/

Don’t worry, I’ll still use this blog for non-baby-related stuff.  But please do visit http://twindadblog.blogspot.com/ for all your multiple-birth-related frivolity needs.
