One of the major reasons, I believe raising twins has been manageable is the incorporation of routines. The funny thing before getting married and having twins is that I used to be the complete opposite; everything was spontaneous and random. I did not like order, in fact, my order was organized chaos, and as long as it made sense to me, I was moving forward with that activity. When you begin to incorporate kids, in particular twins, your only shot is to have some type of order, process, and plan in place, literally from morning to evening. Every moment (as much as possible) has to be accounted for and random cannot occur or be an option. Especially, if you are by yourself, or even with a partner, it just makes things a lot easier to deal with and a good sign that things are going well is if you forget one of the routines, and your child reminds you, then they begin to anticipate and are bought into the process. What is your routine? What are some things that you have tried to incorporate in your day to day that has been not been effective?
