I remember (and the video shows too) that the "twins" clung to my legs
almost the whole time even though they knew everyone (there was about 20 -
but no children). They didn't want anything to do with the gifts except
after they were opened and we had smash cakes made for them and a regular
cake made for the company. Kathleen again wanted nothing to do with the
smash cake whereas Christopher went to it BUT decided after he ran his
hands through it that he didn't like it and started to cry. I think even
though the party was kept short the babies were on overload so be
prepared.
Congrats on #1, have fun.
