Backyard Dilemma with Twins Since Buying the Dual Swing Set

Julia is addicted to the swing and wants me to push her all day. Natalie doesn't like it. She wants me to chase her and be the "Tickle Monster." If I chase Natalie, Julia screams for me to push her. If I'm pushing Julia on the swing, Natlie whines for my attention.

Worse, Natalie keeps running into the trajectory of Julia's swing motion and gets hit. This morning Natalie got the wind knocked out of her.

I am a man of little patience to begin with. After 10 minutes of this dilemma, I want to get out of the backyard and try something else, but by then the girls are in fuss mode.
