Organization is the key...

...to success!! (I hope!)

After my breast feeding class yesterday, it became clear that a log book is absolutely necessary when it comes to caring for a newborn. This is particularly important with twins!

So what do I do?.... I go a little crazy and create a full blown spreadsheet. Those that know me won't be surprised by this at all! -- My wedding planning spreadsheets resembled project plans of million dollar initiatives...my maternity leave has been planned out in a spreadsheet to the last day, which my boss found particularly helpful (and sort of funny).

I present to you...the daily babies log!. I am sure the design will be adjusted as I figure things out with the boys!


I was asked if I'd be willing to share the document I created with other twin moms....well, of course!.

I added a box (on the right) to the link to the pdf version. I tried uploading the Excel version, but the formatting gets a little messed up. Leave me a comment if you have any problems or if you have suggestions for anything I should add/re-arrange!.

Disclaimer: This was meant to be an "internal" house document...and I liked "Pee" and "Poo" better than "Wet" and "Soiled"! ;)

Would you be willing to share this spreadsheet with other expecting mothers of twin boys... uh... like myself :) My boys are coming sometime next week and I've been searching for a log like this to use.

This is so smart. I'm sure it will help you a lot since you have your hands twice as full. I think it's great!
