Boerger Boy Facts

Often times some of you will hear me say that life with twins is hard. It is. Without having family near to lean on and share the load, it makes for some really long days. But I hope that you also hear me when I say there is no greater blessing in my life then the pair of boys God has blessed us with. They are beautiful, happy, playful little boys with personalities & interests that are completely different from each other. We rarely ever call them "the twins," and around our family & friends they are most known as "the Boerger boys."


At nearly 20 months of age, the boys :
  • are taller & heavier than all of the 2-2 1/2 year olds in their Sunday School class;
  • have all 20 of their teeth;
  • have vocabulary of about 75-80 words;
  • still speak their own language, frequently;
  • love to sing songs;
  • eat a packet of oatmeal, 2 1/2 eggs, a banana or half an apple and a whole cup of milk each just for breakfast; an hour later, they are ready for a snack;
  • have figured out how to pour water from a cup onto their brother's head;
  • can run with ease;
  • love watching 'mmELMO';
  • are (gratefully) still in their cribs and take 2 naps a day.
