How to deal with twins at malls

We were at MV shopping last Monday for our New Year clothings. With a big stroller, we now prefer to shop during weekdays hoping to avoid the crowd on weekends. The Christmas decor in MV is beautiful (but of course it did not turn out nice with my lousy camera).

Since it is troublesome to push the huge stroller while we run our errand, we left the boys alone with Por-por and the maid waiting while hubby quickly dashed into Carefour to get something. QQ and I were at the Post office to send a parcel.

While stood there waiting (mum did not expected a crowd would turned up in front of the twins), the babies were swamped by lots of aunties within minutes. Usually we would quickly push and walk, trying not to stop or exchange glances if possible. Otherwise strangers will start to talk to me (I am ok with this), while admiring the boys. Some even could not resist but touch them (oh no, this is what we are afraid of as QQ got HFMD in public just like that once !).

These are 2 questions frequently asked by the public:

1. Oh, are they twins? (obviously they are right? I think this is a way that person wants to start a conversation with me)

2. Are they boys or girls? (arr?? don’t tell me they look girlish?)

Poor Kor-kor started to cry when he saw so many faces while this cheeky Di-di continue to send “electricity” to all aunties! One even attempt to carry the crying kor-kor. Since it was the first time Por-por handle the twins in public, she became panic. Luckily hubby came out quickly to rescue the boys from being ‘molested’ by the aunties, haha!!

  11. I hate it too when strangers touch my baby’s face. But I find it difficult to
    voice it out (since they don’t have bad intentions) so I normally just walk
    away when I see the hands coming!!
