the things we do

...to our children.



Can you find Renee in these photos? If you're anything like me, then before you have a baby, they all tend to look same-ish. Renee is here with her little "play group." Of course, they're all too young to play really and the group is more for the benefit (read: sanity) of the moms (or mums if your in England). We, the moms, thought it was a great idea to take a picture of the babies all together. As you can see, a few of the babies disagreed...Renee was one of them. Once one baby starts crying they all get going and you have a baby crying chorus. A very interesting experience--not sure I'd recommend it though.

How adorable they all are. In each picture, they are each in a different position. It appears as if they turned round and round, like the hands on a clock. I'd recognize that head of hair anywhere. And she has on an outfit I've not seen yet. Which reminds me, I have not seen your wedding-on-a-beach dress either. Next time you all get together and want to antagonize your babies, while dumbfounding your families and friend, situate them just as you did, but change their position and their outfits. That will really bring out a crying baby chorus. And taking pictures of them all crying their heads off will make it triple hard for us to guess which one is Renee. Changed positions, changed outfit, raging babies. That ought to do the trick. I'm glad you have each other. It is nice to have support, I think. I would not know because we never did anything as smart as keeping our prenatal group together after the births, duh.

By changing outfits, I mean switching outfit from baby A to baby B and so on...wanted to clarify my expectations. Boys and girls will be girls and boys when they're infants and their mother's dress them funny. I see that you get a glimpse of what it would be like to be a mother of sextuplets. Another suggestion: Get all of you mommies laying down next to a baby in the circle of heads looking like you're screaming your heads off. Six baby head and six grown-up heads. Maybe that would make the babies stop crying, you think? Gotta get somebody to take the pictures with six different cameras. Plan ahead, get it "plan a head".

Yeah, the outfits give it away. Sextuplets?????? Still can't imagine it. Nope, have no idea. Its not possible really, right? Nobody really has sextuplets do they?

I have to admit, I only recognized her once she started crying. But you can see it wasn't her fault this ended in tears. She was fine in the first picture when Mr. Brown Overalls decided to freak her out. And then she freaked out Mr. Blue Jumper. So funny. She is definitely the cutest one, and the smartest.

In the second picture it looks like Mr. Red White & Blue Stripey Shirt is plugging his ears!

Last comment, I swear... Renee's mohawk is a dead giveaway. Don't let her commit any crimes cause she'd be way too easy to ID out of a line up.
