1. twins in elementary school
--------------------------------------------------------
laurasanfrancisco - 11/2/2011 11:09 pm

 Hi, I just started to think about elementary school for
 the boys (3.5yr). It looks like it will be hard to get
 into the public school of choice for the two of them.
 Is it any easier for private schools? what is people's
 experience? Ideally, we would like them both to be in
 the same school/class. Is there a strategy that parents
 of twins should follow to get them in the same school?

Topic: Smallest bare-bones twin umbrella stroller?

 Anyone have a recommendation? We need the smallest one
 possible to fit in our trunk. Thanks!

 Hi,We bought the cheapest umbrella strollers (2) and
 bought the stroller links to link them together. I
 think the strollers were $15 each and the links were
 $10. When linked together they both just barely fit
 through a standard

 fold up really small, as well.

 I have an Combi stroller that folds twice. It was our
 trunk (and occasional airplane) stroller for a long
 while, and it worked great for us. Other than the
 covers being a little stained at the seat (but clean),
 it is in great shape. I'll sell it to you for $15 if
 you are interested. On Nov 1, 2011, at 8:35 AM, Alice

 If you don't have bedtime/nap cues yet, start them and
 take them along. Our favorite snuggle stuff (animals,
 blankets) always go in car and hotel with us on trips.
 We use ocean sounds to drown out noise at home. On the
 road, I just replay an ocean sounds "song" throughout
 the night my iPhone/tunes. Plan long drives after
 bellies are full and before their normal, long nap.Good
 luck!Call ahead to reserve cribs/pack-n-plays. You may
 need to bring one too.On Nov 1, 2011, at 8:32 AM, Alice
