It's official...

...the girls are two.  Or, the "neighbor twins", as we like to call them.  These two little rascals were born just 2 hours apart, at the same hospital, and shared the same recovery room.  For some, the thought of sharing your recovery room after having a baby is just awful.  We felt the same way...until it actually happened.  I will never forget the charge nurse coming in to tell me that in a perfect world I would never have to share my recovery room...but alas, it's not a perfect world.  The good news turned out to be that I was sharing my room with my next door neighbor!  My real life next door neighbor!  Our girls will forever be connected for so many reasons...and this is one of my favorites.  :)

Trying to get a picture of these two little monkeys started getting tough right around the time they turned 1.  But, we rarely let a milestone go by without at least a quick snapshot.  Turning 2 was no different!  It was quite a little task to get these two looking at the camera at the same time...I had lots of help. :)

attempt #1...not so great...

Michael trying to help me by making the girls laugh.  It worked...but not really what I had in mind. ;)

Nope...not yet....

There we go...the best of the bunch!

...unless you count this one.  ;)
