Seems I talk a lot about time passing, right? Well, I was given a great excuse to indulge this sick tendency by Cheryl over at Twinfatuation, (who wrote the amazing Twinspiration, which all you twin parents to be ought to be pouring over!) Cheryl hosts the Way Back Whensday blog meme every week. And I thought, hey, I know these guys have only been alive for 5 months, but still, February does seem like a long time ago right now. In direct contrast to my, “oh my god, it’s going so fast” mantra. I never said I wasn’t complicated.
In any case, below are photos taken of the boys on their 1 month birthday. (Birthday? Anniversary? Huh what?) And if I do say so myself, these are not the world’s most flattering photos. But, they still make me laugh.
Dateline: February 22, 2009
Twins’ ages: One month

"That's no bottle. WTF?" ~Doot
This was when I had the great idea to photograph the twins on their Monthday every month. The problem is, they weren’t in such a photo-happy mood, which led to a series of photos like this:
omg! we're a month old and omg!
Yes, that was the good one.

Oh, Myg! One of my favorite pictures of all time of our two they are displaying much the dis-ease yours are in that last picture! Darling shots all around.
Isn’t amazing how “way back” that first month feels now? Thank you for playing along…hope you will often. (And thanks for the amazing love for the book.
Means the world.) Squeeze your precious babes…and keep taking pictures!
It’s amazing to see how little babies can look so cute and at the same time you get the feeling they might actually be old and wise.
“Yes mommy, I know this all new for you, but no worries, I have been through this before!”
Best wishes to you and Alex!
your boys are adorable! i have triplet boys who are 18 months old now. i cannot believe mine were ever that small. no way.
but five months, that’s great. this is when it starts to get really fun! (okay, maybe in a couple more months, but you’re close!)
Thanks all. It is funny how long ago it seems now that they were so, so tiny. I wish these photos did a better job of showing how small they really were. I was so afraid I was going to break one of them!
