Cuddling

After our twins spent 7 weeks apart in the NICU, when we got them home we wanted to keep them close together.

So one day, I laid them both down next to me on the couch and Lily took to my leg like a leech and Eve took to Lily's head in a similar fashion. The camera, Kodak digital, was within arms reach, and I snapped this shot.

Didn't do anything special to set it up, just had the camera at the right time. It's hard to get identical twins looking identical on camera and we have been and still are striving to do it when they are awake!
