There is only so far they can go holding onto the couch. Like you, I loved watching my girls learn to walk and it was an awesome time! @Danny – Using a playpen is a great idea.

We made heavy use of a playpen so they could walk around the edge of it. It was difficult having one baby in the playpen and helping the other walk around the house. All the walker wanted to do was explore as far away as possible from her sister. Dragging a toddler back and forth between exploring and her sister is not ideal either. The bottom line is that parents of multiples are going to learn what works for them. They should expect that it will be busy, it will have an effect on their body and it will be an AWESOME time.
