Oh my gosh, they are too adorable! Do you ever get a sore back from all the carrying? :)

Tricia - My shoulders get a little sore if I wear them too long... but most of the time I stop before it's too late. I have learned my limits. :) My chiro always comments on how tight my shoulders are. It's SO worth it though!

Hurray!! You posted a picture carrying both of your babies at the same time! I have been so curious as to how you do it when you talk about carrying them and I have wanted to see a picture for so long! (I even e-mailed you a while ago to ask you if you could post a picture of it :) Thanks so much! I have always thought I would do this when I have kids and now I know for sure that I will. Thanks Brittany! Is is getting heavy and hard on your back to still be carrying them?? They are growing so much :)

Blessings to you!

ADORABLE!!! i couldn't imagine it with 2 but you make it look good! :) i carry my little one in a wrap all the time and she LOVES it - yay for baby wearing! :)

Jarka said...

cute pictures :)and I absolutely love Eliza and her really funy face on the second picture :) lovely...
:) I have cut my hair few weeks ago (if you cut at least 10 inches you can donate them - e.g. for Locks of Love :) ... and I absolutely love life with short hair now when the summer´s coming :)

Carrie said...

This is neat - I like these pictures. :) I'm expecting again in December, so my two will be 2 years apart, and I can picture myself with my 2-year-old in a Patapum back carry & my littlest one wrapped on my front. :) Fun! :)

Drea said...

Love those pictures. LOL the last one you need to make part of your header ;-) wink wink! im free next week if you want to get started! if not next week ill be gone all thru June. BTW did you get our email abt meeting up at the zoo? :) on the 16th?

Drea said...

Oh and I think you'd be cute with a really short cut! I didnt think id like mine so much but I do. its sooooo easy, saves me a lot of time.

LilacClouds said...

this is too cute. I, like many couldnt picture you wearing both of them! have you found that one prefers being up front and one in back? or do you switch it up?

EH said...

Man you look great.. you have had six kids! Your son does a good job with the camera.

Claire said...

Great pictures!!! NOOOOOOO, don't cut your hair! It's so pretty. I'm a long hair girl, so I'll never say "cut it." :)

Marla said...

you must be quite the show stopper when you head out with the whole family :) these are great shots!

Hailey said...

love it!
i don't know how you do it, girl! you are the definition of supermama!

Amanda @ My Everyday said...

Have you ever worn them both on the front? I've seen a lady with two little girls on her chest (they were newborn) and she used two identical ring slings. I wish I knew how she did it.

Kat said...

So cute!
And NO!!! don't cut your hair!!!

Rebekah said...

I love everything about the second picture! Nolia's curly, Eliza's really funny face, your hair in your mouth, and of course, wearing to babies at a time!

Natalie said...

Question for you? How on earth do you manage to get those sweet little girls in place on your bod? Do you have to do it without help ever?

Tarrah said...

you are too cute wearing both those beautiful babies. I love my meeup also but Ethan is starting to get a little squirmy in it now that he can crawl around :)

Christina said...

The twins seem to love the camera. hehe I love your real life pictures...thanks for sharing them with us.

MamaBear said...

I love these type of posts! Would you consider a carnival of this nature? If I were doing it, I would call it "Spell It Like It Is"

Have a wonderful weekend - ALL together again :)

Jenny said...

Hilarious pics! You all are adorable! Those are really pretty carriers.

Duffmano said...

That is hilarious! Love the comments with arrows all over the pic. I don't know how you do it woman, there isn't an ounce of stress on your face. I'd look agonized with two of mine attached on the front and back!:)

Southern Cernock said...

I love how you do these pics.

Adventures In Babywearing said...

This is so fun. I tweeted it from my phone but am home now to comment!! I am growing my hair out longer- not ready to cut it yet altho I get REALLY tempted some days. Especially with grabby grabbers baby. I'm just afraid I'd regret it if I cut it short...

And what a pretty backpack! I've never used anything like that before.

Magic Brush said...

I really liked your hair in the pic on your sidebar... a few inches shorter!!!! It's cute every way tho'.

Liz said...

wow~you've got quite a bit of baby hanging off of you! :) I say if you are thinking about cutting your hair---go for it---but I'm the crazy girl who cuts her hair different lengths/ways all the time...but your hair looks pretty the way it is now too!

Erin said...

love it :) So cute!

Heather said...

Adorable! I bet those babies just love being so close to you and each other.

crazymaisey said...

These pictures are gorgeous and say so much. Eliza and Nolia are beautiful and I love it when they pull their little faces.
If cutting your hair makes life easier for you, go for it. But I would keep some of those curls if I were you.
Best wishes to you and all of your lovely family.x

These photos are fantastic!!
Thanks for sharing.

Upstatemomof3 said...

Oh my goodness, that is awesome!!! And hysterical. And now thanks to you I know what I need for when Baby gets here - a kokopax backpack. I am going to go research them right now. But I will need something that lets me wear two of them.

Corinne said...

What great pictures - I love the comments!! I'm loving your backpack carrier... hmm... ;)

Pineapple Princess said...

We have GOT to make you something that matches that Kokopax...I just can't stand the clashing! LOL! My fabrics came in, you'll just drool, they are beautiful!

The 6-S Ranch said...

You're such a cute lady:) And those babies are adorable!

Lori said...

Eliza's funny face cracked me up!! Great commentary.

Mama Joe said...

All of that real life going on, and you still look amazing and had time to put on a necklace!

You are living the good life.

Carrie said...

Love these!

Kate said...

You and your daughters are just so lovely! I've really enjoyed gettting to know your family through your blog since finding it shortly ago. I LOVE your Meeup too! I might need one... Hmmm... :)

Amy said...

How beautiful you all are!

Katie and Oresti said...

Hi Brittany, we recently found out we're expecting twins! We have one child already. Anyway, I have so many questions but I don't know anyone with twins and I was wondering if you could email me. my email is katiemetka@yahoo.com
one thing is, is your kokopax comfortable? I enjoy babywearing, plus when we travel that looks like something my husband could wear while I wear the other one in a sling.
anyway, hope to hear from you.
thanks!
Katie Metka

Sarah @ BecomingSarah.com said...

What precious pictures =)

~love said...

gorgeous...all 3 of you. =)

don't cut your hair! i'm all for long hair while you can! =)

Shelleyrae33 said...

Thanks to you, I also LOVE my Mee-Up! NO, do not cut your hair short, it's too cute!

Katie said...

I love this! Pretty soon this will be me with an almost two-year old and a less than two-week old when we travel to adopt our second baby.

I'm planning to use my wrap (5 yards tie-dyed crinkle cotton) and a home-made thick jersy pouch. I hope it works out. I'm a little worried about all the inevitable stares.

I should practice with Amanda on my back and a sack of potatoes in the pouch.
