Default bedtime routine

Hmmm, interesting. I almost never put them to bed separately, so I wonder
how one would feel if they went to bed without the other. My parents are
going to be watching them in a couple of weeks and I was going to tell them
to put them to bed separately (but in the same room) because I know it
stresses them out a little. But I think I will make a point of telling them
to put them to bed at the same time so it doesn't confuse them.

I often ask myself the same question. My 12 months old twins share our
bedtime routine, while my 3.5 yo is always alone with me at bedtime. Even
if I feel bad about it too, I think Cookie is right. Héloïse IS used to
having me by herself, so that would be unfair if I stopped, whereas
Caroline and Alexandre are used to sharing this moment, in fact I even
think it's part of their routine. I mean being together. I've noticed that
if one of them is late going to bed, the other doesn't sleep until both of
them are in their crib.

Hi. I mostly lurk, but I have a question about bedtime routines. Right
now I read my 20month old b/g twins books together on my lap and then
sing them a song before putting them to bed. Do any of you read/sing
separately, or do you do it together? I'm feeling a little bad that my 3
1/2 year old gets me all to herself before bedtime, but my twins do not.
Any suggestions..
