    Conversation at the dinner table is perfect and helps them to develop habits of talking about things. They’re excited about or sad about and know that it’s OK to talk about whatever is on their mind.

    As a trained developmental child psychotherapist I think you and your husband have the perfect formula when parenting your beautiful girls. You remain calm, you are attuned, you provide structure and nurture, playful moments and use attuned responses to support security in the girls. I so enjoy watching your girls develop into confident and secure children. Well done mom and dad! ❤😊

      Yes. Just like Alicia, we were raised to eat dinner together, at the dinner table, and there was great conversation. Sometimes, my Dad would "host" little contests, like simple math problems we had to do in our head, spelling bees, little trivia questions. They were light-hearted activities that did not detract from the physical act of eating a meal. It made the routine a lot more fun. So I do enjoy the convos that Alicia has with her girls.

I am a strong advocate for incorporating language & literacy into all aspects of child development. Your mealtime conversations are excellent and the girls clearly enjoy them😊 I can see the growth in their language & communication, in large part due to how you and Walt engage them in conversation. Keep doing what your doing, Mommy!! ❤❤

    The other main difference in Ana and Guin is Ana has mamas cheeks...her eyes being bigger and her cheeks rounder...that's how I first could tell them apart.

      Sign language really IS great to know. Schools are already tasked with so much they've got to teach our children, there may not be time in the school day, but I hope more parents will teach it to their kids. I wish teaching kids to sign was popular when my kids were little. It would have been so helpful in the days before they learned to talk.

      @joansimons6205 So sorry for your loss, Joan. A parent should never have to bury their child. I think back 50 years ago when I was a kid...it was common for people to slather baby oil on themselves and bake in the sun. Skin cancer is no joke, and it's so important to use sunscreen and wear hats even on cloudy days, especially on delicate baby skin. I hope happy memories of your daughter come to mind, especially when you need it the most to comfort you and bring a smile to your heart. 😇🙏💔

Guin and her bangs!! I was a bit surprised someone asked why you talk to them during meals! I think it’s wonderful, I loved your explanation. You and Walt fill their lives with joy and vice versa!

    Alicia, you're such a sweetheart. Thanks for doing this. You and Walt are great parents and have taught the girls so well. They have great manners to be so young, their vocabulary is immense, and they are just such well adjusted little people! (FYI: I had a cat named CAT when I was a kid. I don't think cats care about such trivial matters as a name LOL).

    Thank you for the Q&A, very interesting. It’s a precious time when children are small and to enjoy and appreciate. It’s gone all too fast.❤
    My husband is left handed, back in the day he was forced to write with his right hand and physically hit with a ruler across the knuckles by his teachers if he used his left hand. Consequently he does write with his left hand but his hand writing is awful, glad that abuse has long since been banished.
    Incidentally, we also had a cat ( for 13 years) who we just called CAT, basically because no-one could think of a name for her that we could agree on.

    Hi Alicia, thank you for this session. We have a lot in common. We are both in Massachusetts. I try to "hide" my accent, but it does come out when I'm stressed or angry lol. You guys have a well-rounded parenting style, which is very refreshing. I was very happy to to see that youve taught them some signing...I taught my son some basic signs as my mother was born hard of hearing, and signing helped him understand why she speaks differently. I lost my 1st and 2nd pregnancies, one of them had a 99.9% fatal birth defect and our dr. said my chances of having another was high, so when we found my son was perfect, we decided to stop there. Keep up your good work. Youre going to have 2 very well-rounded adults 20 years from now! ❤🙂

    I grew up the oldest of 7 children. You can imagine how large our dining room table was. My Mom was a school teacher and my Dad was a construction worker. We had many laughs and conversations around the dinner table. I so agree with you, Alicia. Cheers from Canada!

      Guten Abend liebe Renate, ich möchte dir nur kurz zustimmen. Alicia und Walt gehen ihren Weg unbeirrt und der Erfolg gibt ihnen recht. Ich habe so viele "Aha" Momente wenn ich die Videos anschaue und ich kann guten Gewissens sagen, dass ich viel von den beiden lernen konnte bisher, auch wenn mein Sohn bereits erwachsen ist. 💜🩷 So, nun wünsche ich dir einen wunderbaren Abend liebe Renate, sende dir ganz herzliche Grüsse und eine dicke Umarmung! 🤗🌼💕 See you tomow-ow-ow! 🥰🙋‍♀

The girls have Mom's absolutely gorgeous eyes! Again, love this, and thanks for this video. You ought to consider doing this periodically.

    I really enjoyed this. Having watched the girls for so long now I had the funniest image pop into my head of the two of them deciding which one would go first when they were born. I’ve never been able to follow any child for so long and watch all the stages of development. With twins we can see the individuality forming and their interactions with each other as well as their parents. For an old retired medical social worker I can tell you that your videos are invaluable teaching tools for child development, for parenting skills, and for family dynamics. So we don’t just enjoy you. We need you.

    Thank you so much for this Q & A Alicia! It was lovely to see your pretty face, and seeing you confirms my belief that Anna looks more like you. The girls are so cute and lovely, and they seem to be communicating more with each other on camera these days. BTW, I am a retired Hairdresser/ Barber, and owned my own businesses for years, so I know how hard it can be, though I loved every minute of it. It is a privilege for me to see a small window into your lives as a family.❤
