They are so gorgeous! Caroline even accidentally found her hair. I have been enjoying your Redbook articles. I may in fact be forced to subscribe. I am outrageously happy on your behalf.
Oh, I can almost smell the yummy baby smells from here! They are just adorable!!! And all that lovely hair! Although I was hopeful, as a redhead myself, that at least one of them might have your lovely red hair. Oh well, there are more important things !! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous gorgeous babies with that beautiful black and brown hair! Caroline has those pretty lips and Edward looks so serene and content. Who made the beautiful blue blankets? Very nice color for your two sweethearts. So happy for you.
Oh Julia I'm so happy for you and your truly beautiful new babies - they are both totally delightful and the only thing I think is missing is where oh where are the ladybig onesies?
What happened to the myriad pink blankets your mother made? I'm sure with Edward's dark hair, he'd look great in a pastel.
And I realize I have nothing in the photo for scale (that could be a doll blanket for all I know), but Caroline doesn't look so small. Or, rather, she looks small like a baby but not especially so.
Oh! They are too, too sweet. Congratulations!! As a newborn photographer can I gently suggest that you take (or get taken) some photos that capture just how tiny they are right now? These photos capture their beautiful faces but not their size. You need something adult sized for comparison, like parental hands. If you are interested in getting professional photos these women are amazing: http://barebaby.net/
They are SO beautiful they took my breath away. I am not normally a "baby person" except when it comes to my own, but truly - your two babies are SO sweet and delicious looking. I am very, very happy for you.
I usually lurk, it's not like you're short on comments, but gosh are they ever gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.
They've got that "wise baby" look about them.
Look at all that wonderful hair. They are absolutely beautiful. We are just so happy for you!! And I'm glad to hear that Patrick and the cats seem to be adjusting well to these "intruders" (as my son called our twins for the first 3 months).
They're adorable!!!! I'm in love already!!
