Mine are 4.2.8mo. Doesn't get easier yet haha. Although I'd rather hold off the teenage years for at least 20 years!

Everything is "mine do it". If I so much as put my hand near them it all kicks off!

On a happier note they both go to nursery on a Monday morning so I'm sitting in tescos car park eating olives and feta cheese before I go home and get straight.

It's the small pleasures in life that keep me sane.

Mine are 3.7 and they won't do a bloody thing for themselves even though they are capable. It's just too much hard work. I'd do anything for a bit of 'mine do it'!! Smile

Yes it gets lots easier at 3 Grin

Ooooh we have mine do it, then they kick off because they cant - which is my fault obviously.
My 2 will be 3 in July. I think ....> I think we are coming out of a pull your hair out hard stage, in to a this is actually easier than before stage. Don't want to jinx anything - hence the whispering Wink

My dtd can do a lot actually like get dressed, brush hair etc. My older ds who's 6 would still let me get him dressed for school, lazy little monkey.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Polly.

I'm with you lady

Mine are 16 months and while sleep is a little better, the logistics of going anywhere often put me off.
I tend to keep outings short as They often want to walk now and I can't handle them.

Even in the garden I often have them causing mischief in opposite directions!Grin

It does get easier, I get on really well with my twin sister, but then we are 37 :). Sorry not helpful, mum did say that we got easier and played better once we went to school if that helps.....

I just can't keep my eyes on all 3.

The twins aren't walking yet but if we go out they want to get out and crawl and my toddler wants to run off.

We went out at weekend setoup camp for a picnic.. well it was a nightmare they were off in different directions the toddler was off as well. It was hell. I couldn't sit down nothing. Don't want to go out ever again.

My twin boys will be four in August, i'd like to say it got easier as they got older but the difficult phases just changed into other difficult phases! They fight/wrestle/kick/pinch eachother, yet when i try to keep them apart they simply say i'm horrible and that they love/want eachother. No matter what i do i feel like i can't win :-/
