Welcome to Mama Papa Baby Baby!

Welcome to Mama Papa Baby Baby -- an outlet for my journey and trials as a first time mother of twins. I will be sharing information on simple and intuitive parenting, for all of our experiences are unique and fun to discuss.

My approach to parenting can be summed up to this: I love taking many different methods and making them "my own". Overall I am more keen to a "natural" type of parenting although I am not extreme by any means. I much prefer to use the word intuitive - I do not follow any particular set of rules and I go with the flow.

There are many labels out there that define how you raise your children. Breastfeeding, bottle feeding, cry it out, baby-led weaning, co-sleeping, attachment parenting, baby signing, cloth diapering... I could go on. However I like to see things as not all-or-nothing. I fall somewhere in between and I feel that a lot of parents do. I simply pick my favorite elements out of everything and form my own style. No pressure, no judgements... that is how I like it!

Furthermore, I love to read and absorb information through the experiences of others. That is why I have decided to take the time to form Mama Papa Baby Baby and share what I learn.

Meet the family -- I am Mama :) My dear husband is Papa. We were blessed with identical twin girls, Squishie and Tiny. As of the beginning of my blogging project, Squishie and Tiny are 4 1/2 months old. I am at but the very start of my parenting journey and have already learned very well that no matter how we plan things, Squishie and Tiny dictate the show. I'm following their lead!

I hope to cover many topics and blog for a very long time... and learn a few things in the process!
