Congratulations gramps.
 
Twins but don't know the sex. Now we will need to relocate and help him get a job.
 
Or Two Jobs... How are you doing?

To be honest it doesn't help me at all, but I will do my best. I hate to say we will need to relocate so he can get work. My wife job ends in june or the first week of July and my Disability check won't be enough for 6 Adults and 2 babies. But I am starting to get excited even with everything going on.
 
What kind of work does he got experience in?And have far would the family move?

Well he only has the Army experience. He had a job working in a convenience store but got fired,they said he was loitering. He showed up to work a hour early. My wife works a mail room and her job ends too. Me I am too high risk to work.
 
Tough Economy right now but he just needs to keep putting out applications and doing interviews and I sure he will find work.
We are lucky here in Texas and have not felt what the rest of country has in the past few years.My brother lost everything he had in Miami and is back in Texas after being there 15 Years.
God has blessed you'll with twins and he has a plan for you'll.
Stay positive and excited,it will all work out.

Congratulations to you and your son - and his GF. My wife and I had twins on her 2nd pregnancy, and while it was a lot of work having two at a time, it's also been quite a ride! The boys are now 12 and getting done with their 6th grade year. Looking at how we made it through, it was a lot of changing two diapers at the same time, getting two bottles ready at the same time, getting two kids through baths and dressed at the same time, but it also means that when visiting with family, there are two babies for everyone to hold and play with. We were never without help when we were visiting with family. However, that made it so that both of the boys were wanting to be held after a family gathering, and with an older brother also running around, that always didn't happen, but with the twins, they always had each other to play with. We didn't often run into one always taking something away from the other - it happened occasionally, but my wife would always try to teach them to not take it from the other and to share. However, if a toy was on the floor, it was fair game for the other one!
Anyway, while our twins were concidered identical twins - they shared the same placenta - and they look very much alike, the differences in their personalities have really become more apparent as they have grown older. One is more outgoing than the other, but they have very much the same tastes in TV shows, books to read for school, etc. They however have different opinions as to what their favorite foods are and their aptitudes in school are not exactly the same - though close.
We always had them in different cribs, but in the same room, and they graduated to bunk beds from the cribs. The bunk beds were at first not stacked, but as they got older, we stacked their beds to give them more floor space in their room.
It's been an adventure. My wife and I are always known as the twins mom or dad when we go on field trips. My boys however are quick to tell anyone which twin they are - they don't like being called the name of the other, so their identities are very well set. They do put up with people getting mixed up though knowing they do look alike.
My wife is a twin, so we kinda (at least she did) of what to expect but it's always different being the parent.
Enjoy!
 
My son has no idea on how I plan to spoil them. Guess I better get a Mopar collection going. Thanks everyone for all the well wishes.
