Aim Low

If I could only give one piece of advice to expectant parents of twins, it would be to aim low. Never get your hopes up. Never set expectations. That way anything they do that is remotely good seems like a huge triumph. And we all need those victories.
We had no idea what to expect from Matt and Will on vacation, and as always they pleasantly surprised us. Most of the flights were uneventful, they behaved well in an unfamiliar condo and even slept (for the most part) in pack n plays in another room. They happily were passed around from person to person without so much as a whimper. We were able to take them to dinner with no fuss. I hate to admit this, but they were almost perfect!
This doesn't mean we'll become a world traveling family. And I know Chris would agree that the logistics of traveling with the boys was at times tough. So we will revel in our success and avoid any air travel with them for at least another year.
Enjoy the before, during and after photos! I'll post more about the actual trip sometime later this week.
