The Trouble With Twins and Blogging

I have had the privilege of becoming a mama to two exceptional babies about five months ago. They were three months premature and my husband and I spent two and a half restless months at the NICU at McMaster Children's Hospital. I could go on to tell about that exhausting experience, the worry and what seemed like constant bad news, or I could talk about how they are perfectly normal babies today who are making it really hard to start a blog!

The trouble with twins is as soon as one stops crying,
the other one starts.
The trouble with twins is as soon as one falls asleep,
the other one fusses.
The trouble with twins is I feed them all day,
and they're still hungry.
The trouble with twins is,even if they are cozy asleep on you,
once you start typing an entry they yell at you.

But the real trouble with twins is that they make you nuts enough to want to do it all over again.

Now that you know all my excuses, here goes!

My blog really has no focus. There isn't any neat niche that I'm going for other than discussing exactly what I want to because that makes it fun for me. I know that sounds selfish, but what's the point of trying to be something I'm not-a good blogger. I picked the name "The Mama Wears Pumps" because really that's the best thing I can pull out of my fried mommy-brain. I quite enjoy heels and wear them almost always. I'm the lady you might see with the dirty hair, a disheveled shirt, and with spit up all over her jeans but gee golly she's wearing heels!

So here starts my journey of trying to keep up with one more thing, because twin infants just isn't enough! Also, if you'll notice, I'm publishing my first post on January 11th, well past the 1st where I first intended to start blogging. Off to a great start, but hey, this is my blog, so there!

  1. An excellent start! And given the fact that you have twins I think you are doing well getting started by the 11th :-)

  2. Yay, my li'l sis has a blog!! I'm so happy! (how did I miss this?)
    I LOOOOOVE your background too, it's so so pretty. And it IS your blog, do with it what you please.
    I've only got one baby, and I still have fried mama brain, and often dirty hair and spitup jeans. *sigh*
