Whoop-de-doos and Whirly-woos

My twin nieces, Nicolyn and Clara love clothes.  Clothes and shoes.  They could spend all day trying them on, talking about them and chewing on them.  Yeah...they're only 2.  They specialize in obscure clothing combinations, for instance, Clara is currently sporting a delightful ensemble featuring a frilly purple top, which clashes perfectly with her orange and yellow hairbow, an adorable red skirt sits atop a brown flowered skirt that is accentuated by the rainbow-striped pajama pants underneath it (they are of course inside-out), which are made even better by the white pajama pants with hearts on top of them, and not to be outdone by the blue pajama pants with puppies on them on top of those and if you think it is impossible to get another pair of pants on after that, you are sorely mistaken, because this gal also sported a pair of brown pants to even the whole thing out and at any given time she can have a variety of colored socks on, though she is entitled to pull them off at any moment, and her shoes vary depending on her mood.  I wish I could get away with wearing things like that....but alas, I am a little too conservative in my tastes in comparison.

The dynamic duo also have this fantastic daredevil streak running through them.  They dive off of furniture (with or without a pile of pillows in their landing area), climb up and down the double stroller (sometimes swinging from the handle like monkeys), in their opinion, the higher, the better.

They're kinda crazy, but I secretly love it.  Well...not so secretly.
