Are they Twins?!?!

Babies draw attention if you take them out. Everyone loves to point and coo at your babies. Twins, however, bring ALOT of attention!!!

Today I'm going to list the conversations Cody and I have almost anytime we take the babies out....In fact, we generally place bets on how many times we will get asked the following when we go into a store.  This is just for fun...we love talking about our babies..but stating the obvious can get redundant.

S = Stranger
U = Us (Either Cody or Myself)
W = Smart Comment we're thinking in our head..NOT saying outloud.

S - "Are they twins?"
U - "Yup"
S - "A boy and a girl?"
U - "Yup"
S - "Are they Identical?"
U - "Ummm..No? (insert awkward silence)
W - "Do they look identical?"
W - "Two words: Penis and Vagina"

S - "Are they twins?"
U - "Yup"
S - "Do twins run in your family?"
W - "They do now"

S - "Are they twins"
U - "Yup"
S - "How did that happen?"
U - "Twice in one night" (Yes I actually say that...it isn't just a thought in my head :)
S - "Oh!?!?" 

S - "Are they the same age?"
U - "Yes"
S - "Oh, so they're twins?"
W - "No, we met at a playdate and are having an affair"

S - "Oh you have twins...a boy and a girl"
U - "Uh Huh"
S - " You got it done in one shot"
or
S - "So you're done now"
S - "Perfect!  You can be done now"

S - "Twins"
U - "Yup"
S - "My Aunt, Sister, Cousin, Nephew, Niece, Granpa, Mother, Lover, Best Friend, Friend of a Friend, Sisters husband's grandpa's father...HAS TWINS!!!
U - "Really?!?..."

Here are some random comments we have heard...

S - "OMG, you have your hands full"
S - "You're having twins...did you cry when you found out...cuz I would ball!"
S - "Twins!?!?  I would just die if I found out I was having twins"
S - "Were you implanted?"
S - "Two for the price of one"  (W - You don't have kids do you?")
S - "At least you got it all done at once"

If you would like to input some funny comebacks we are always looking for new ideas...leave us a comment with some good ideas :)

I have a friend whose husband says, "No, one of them is my girlfriend's baby. They just happened to have them on the same day."
