A bit more on twins...

I realized from a few of your comments that you didn't even know I was a twin. Well, it is such a HUGE part of who I am, I thought I would show you a few more pictures (& some recent ones too). This first one is a classic in our family. My sweet mom doin' it up twin style. Ha ha. I can not imagine this. Yikes!
Here's my sister and I in December at Disneyland (I'm in the brown jacket)
Here is us at one of our best friend Catherine's b-day party (the beautiful blondie) in Palm Springs. I'm sitting down in the front left and my sis is behind me. The other 2 pretty girls in the picture are Susie & Kimi, our other 2 besties :)Being a twin isn't anything that anyone else can ever understand. Even if you have very close relationships with your siblings, it still can't compare to twin-hood. We are one in the same. Sure we have our differences (all growing up, I was the opinionated bratty one and she was the sweet pushover...although this is definitely no longer the case, ha ha), but we can be together doing anything and it is as if we are walking around and hanging around with ourselves...sorry that's confusing. Basically, we can always be together, without interruption, and always be at peace and happy. I know her as well as I know myself. We have a crazy connection and it has played a big role in the woman I am today. Anyway, just thought I would share these more recent pictures to tie in with my b-day post from yesterday.
T minus one day until Friday :) xo

  2. Sweet pictures! Twin-hood is such an interesting, special, amazing bond. I used to work in a NICU and I can remember how the twins would touch and hold on to each other (even at 3 and 4 pounds). And medically speaking they actually did better when they were in the same crib together. Pretty cool! Love the pic of your mom doing double duty. I give a big KUDOS to any mom of twins! I can't imagine how hard it must be. Happy Birthday, again! :)

  3. What an awesome thing to be a twin. Although I am not one I can imagine that the bond is greater than just having a sibling.

  8. love the pictures of you guys, and I passed as well, even on the younger pictures of you and Lisa (but I've known you my whole life) I remember as a kid I could NOT always tell you apart, until we'd been hanging out for a few hours, it's pretty easy now though. Love the one of your mom doing it up twin style, I have a new respect for moms of twins, one at a time is plenty for me. She must have though Brian was a breeze after having twins!

  9. How could your parents be so lucky to get two gorgeous daughters that obviously look exactly alike?

    Have a great weekend Ali....

  10. That was such a sweet tribute to "TWINDOM".....My sis and I were born on the same day...5 yrs apart. When I was little I would imagine us being twins...Funny, though we could not have been MORE different!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
