That's for all you dads out there, but especially the one who won the Mother's day contest...because as luck would have it, today is the day I have some photos of his sweet girlies ready to share! These two little ladies decided to make their appearance a little on the early side....not unusual for twins. That just meant that by the time I met them they were almost to their due date and they were definitely starting to figure out that there is fun stuff going on around and maybe, just maybe they should keep an eye on things and make sure nothing too fun was going on without them! Here are a few of my favorites...enjoy!
Hee hee! Don't you LOVE those hats...never mind how absolutely adorable those little faces peeking out are!!
I just love that these girls weren't phased at all by being all tangled up together...guess that feels totally normal...and see, just checking to make sure all the adults are behaving themselves. Just so you know, these girls come by their calm demeanor honestly. Both mom & dad were completely at ease the whole time I was there...and I was impressed. This whole twin newborn thing is enough to rattle anyone and these guys are handling it like pros. Trust me, if I was as sleep deprived as I'm guessing they must be, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be so calm, cool, & collected. You guys deserve some sort of fabulous prize...best I can do is award you the big gold star of parenting! Yay for you!
First, don't you love all that hair? Second, I am completely amazed at how much "eye contact" I got from these two! Usually with awake newborns you get some crossed-eyes, or a wandering eye, or just looking off into the distance...but these girls must have liked my big black camera because I got quite a few of them checking it out!
(So I'm having a hard time narrowing down which photos to post....hang in there, this might be a long one!)
Ahhhh, the sleeping baby...so peaceful!
This is one of my all time favorites...I love dad's hand with his wedding ring, but most of all, I love the sweet, calm, "I'm drifting off to sleep" face and the little bit of flaky skin that tells you she is still brand new.
Now for the "bits & pieces" shots...hee hee, I love these all together as a series of shots!
Dad with one of the girls.
and mom with the other.
Hmmm, might make a cool photo wall with your favorite shots of the girls mixed in there...more coming soon!
Anyway, hope all you dads are still in bed waiting for your breakfast service...have a great day! And a little p.s. for the father of my kids...you are the best and we are all lucky to have you...hope it blows today!
Oh my, they are simply gorgeous. And the pictures are gorgeous too! I especially like the one where the sweet little girl is looking right at the camera as dad holds her head.
