Nice pic, Krista!  I really like the natural colored twins on the black and white background.  Neat!   O0

They've really grown.  I think the last time I saw pictures of them, they were about a year old.  (OK, so I haven't been here for a while.)   {:-P;;

Oh, how sweet!!  I think I could do that with PSP, but I haven't figured it out yet.  They look to be about the same age as my youngest, 3.  Is that about right? 

Oh no, they don't even have training wheels, they must be much older, or very talented!  My little guy is still on a tricycle.

thanks everyone :)

Yes, they turned 3 in March... and they do have training wheels. Although it looks like Andrew was borrowing someone else's bike for that picture. In fact that was the first time they were able to bike by themselves without someone pushing them which is sure nice. :) Hard pushing two by myself...lol.

Debbie, I'm up in the North Okanagan so about 3 hours north of you :) same valley :)

They do very well on their bikes for 3!  My 3 year old, Aiden, turned 3 in January.

Tell them Uncle Sean is proud of them riding their bikes alone.

Debbie, that would be fun. I'm on the outskirts of Vernon so about 2 hours north of the border. If I had a pond, i'd have the annual West Coast Pond Partay up here... not sure my fountain permits me to host...lol.

Mike, of course they are :) Nothing but the best for my boys :) And I've seen your yard and what not... you have been doing lots in the last 3 years since I've been there :) And hey, there is a strong possiblity that I'll be in your neck of the woods over Christmas/New Years. I'll find out this weekend actually if it's a go. Just waiting to hear if my sister got knocked up this month...lol.  Are you coming up this direction in the next couple months?

Sean, Uncle Sean should tell them himself ;)

They are at a super age now Krista... real fun watching them attempting independence.  Have the past 3 years been hard work? (I had enough of a challenge with just the 1 ::))

Hard to believe they are three already. It's such a nice age, a bit more independant, and just plain fun. They sure have grown again. Nice photos. Is that the view from your house? It sure is lovely.

You lost me, Jerry!   :-\

Would someone (preferably female) please PM me and tell me what is wierd/perverted/whatever about that phrase.  Either I'm too old, too prudish, or in the wrong part of the country to know what's wrong with it.    :-\

Here in California many gals refer to their boobs as "The Twins.!  Since our beloved Krista had some surgery recently I thought of that.  Sorry 'bout that :wub: :wub: :wub:

Thanks for "splaining," Jerry!  I guess it wasn't all that bad after all.    ;) 

I was partly right, tho, it was a regional thing...around here they're usually called boobs.   ;D
