Could they be triplets?


Take a look at Grandpa Clark's baby picture...
When Jim showed me this baby picture I couldn't believe how much my boys look like him. I already know they look just like their dad, but obviously dad gets his looks from his dad.



Growing, Shopping, and more Growing

I am amazed each day how much the boys are growing and changing. As many of you know, I am a very independent and "on the go" kind of person. Well, that way of life has changed a bit for me! (at least the "on the go" part) However, last Thursday when the temperatures (and my tolerance of being stuck at home on most days) reached near 60 degrees, I decided it was time to try out the double stroller! I decided to introduce the boys to Target, where the majority of mommy and daddy's money is spent! I made sure to time this trip right in between feedings, changings and during nap time. The getting ready process was at least 15 minutes. I had a fully stocked diaper bag, with a bottle for each boy, several diapers, a change of clothes, and all of the other "stuff" that you can't leave home without when you are trucking around a baby or two. However, after reflecting on this trip I had no idea how I would ever feed one or even both of the boys at Target... we simply would have had to come home if eating became the priority, but at least I had the bottles and the formula!
So, we packed up and went shopping at Target. The double snap and go stroller is a wonderful invention and I am so glad I decided to get it. Both boys were snapped in and we started at the $1 Spot. Well, I quickly realized that this wonderful stroller was not a shopping cart! I had to shop small... only things that could fit in the bottom basket could be bought. Well, an hour and half and $75 dollars later, we ended our first shopping trip at Target when feeding time drew very near (maybe even a little overdue... I was pushing my luck!). The boys did great and of course received lots of attention. They are too cute! See some of our latest pictures below. (I decided to leave out the one where Owen is posing with certain finger in the air... maybe that was his true feeling on our trip to Target!) If you truly would like to see it for a good laugh I will gladly email it to you if you so request. I just thought I would keep this a G rated site :)
