Penguin Babies

Uncle David and Aunt Mercedes gave C & G some very cute penguin outfits for Christmas. They are adorable, but I'm not convinced of their practicality. They are way too warm to wear indoors, but not warm enough for snowsuits. Plus, they are covered in HUGE buttons. However, I can see why they were purchased, as they are pretty darn cute!! So, after a month of busy life, we finally got the babies into the penguin suits and took some pictures. Colin didn't seem to be particularly pleased, but he took it in stride, as he usually does. Gillian seemed more in tune with her penguin self, as her favorite book tells her all about penguins (Penguin's wings don't help him fly, he plays in water not the sky).

Anyway, we are holding on to the penguin suits and will someday gift them BACK to D &M for them to use with their kids.

These are adorable. Practical...maybe not, but TOO cute! Mary Kaye Steele loved these pictures-she's a penguin collector!

LOL, they are so cute!! I knew the suits aren't practical, but I thought they would be good for a photo shoot :) Buttons aren't good for changing diapers. I LOVE the first Steeler photo. I don't think I have seen Gillie smile before. C-Man is always so happy. What wonderful babies you have been blessed with :)
