Capitol Kiddos!

This is a quick post so we could throw some cool pictures up on the blog. We've been told a couple of times that if you're going to survive as parents of twins you have to have a small dose of "crazy." Well, yesterday proved that we are well on our way! We decided that since the weather was so incredible (hi of 78!) that we would take the girls and the dogs into the city so we packed everyone up in the mini-van and off we went!


We carried the kids in their Baby Bjorns and kept the dogs on leashes (obviously) and what we noticed was that every other set of parents with a singleton had way more stuff with them than we did. I'm talking strollers, blankets (it's 78 degrees! Blankets? Really?), diapers bags...the works. What we realized was that since we had two and didn't have room for all that stuff that we are learning to pack only the essentials. If the kids needed a diaper change than they would get one when we got back to the van. Are we really going to wrestle the dogs while we try to change a diaper on the National Mall? No...so we left the double stroller and car seats and diaper bag in the van...and giggled at all the parents pushing strollers overloaded with unnecessary extras...while they looked on in curious amusement at the two idiots with twins and dogs!


Enjoy the pictures. :)

I had to throw this one in there because Bridget has got some really, really blue eyes.
