Annie and Jamie have been married for twelve years and have two sets of twins and a baby, three boys and two girls. Caleb and Daniel were born in 1991, Hannah and Samuel in 1993 and Chelsea in 1999. They are all fraternal or non-identical. Their dog is called Ollie and their cats are called Chloe and Lucy
Annie is a registered nurse and also runs her own business distributing fruit and vegetable capsules called Juice Plus+. She loves to go to the gym, bush walking, gardening, coffee with friends, working and spending time with her family
Jamie is an optical dispenser who teaches at Tafe and OTEN. He loves surfing, soccer, playing table-tennis, landscaping around the house and spending time with his family
Together they teach pre-marriage courses and have a strong passion toward the ideal of happy families, notwithstanding the hard work at times
This is their first book and was written to give new parents of twins an understanding of what twin parenting is like. The nineties have produced so many great parenting books but none specifically for parents of twins. Considering that twelve thousand parents have twins annually in Australia and multitudes worldwide, Annie and Jamie searched bookshops to be shown the modern way to raise their twins
After commenting for years about the lack of information to guide parents of twins, this is a book birthed from their own experience. Hopefully it will make your journey a little easier
This book is written for the parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles, friends and neighbours of young twins. As parents of 2 sets of twins we have often been asked HOW DO YOU COPE? We hope this book gives you some insight into the incredible time you are about to experience knowing and loving baby twins. We guarantee you will survive....and hopefully enjoy the chaos while doing so
