Diaper bags
Here's my suggestion for going out with twins. Something I learned with Caleb, Dave - just keep the diaper bag in the car. Don't even bring it back into the house. If you do, you'll forget it. I learned that the hard way with Caleb. I would bring the diaper bag into the house when we got home. Then one day when I took him for his well-check and I forgot it. I was lucky I rememberd to bring him in the car seat. Well when the nurse went to do his naked weight, he stripped Caleb down. Caleb immediately began peeing in lovely arc across the entire wall of the room. I burst out laughing and couldn't stop. His clothes, diaper and everything was soaking wet. And I had forgotten his diaper bag. I never forgot it again. Thankfully the Drs. office had extra diapers. As far as the soaked clothes, we wrapped him up in his blankets naked and he survived. Keep the clothes you like least in the diaper bag that way you don't have to feel guilty not using them. Tell yourself that they're serving a greater good in case just such a peeing emergency arises. Ahhhhhh there's nothing like talking about peeing and poop and other bodily functions I never would have dreamed about four years ago. Karen can you believe our little ones will be four this year???!! Good night all.

thanks for the advice. We're going to pack a "car bag" to leave in the car at all times- a good use for those chinsy diaper bags they give you at the OB office.
So- is that story about Caleb include Matt saying "DUDE, STOP IT!!" to Caleb as he peed away?
hee hee!
