My favorite part of having twins...

Don't you want to come over for cupcakes at our house?

One of our favorite past times is making cupcakes. While I clean up the enormous mess made from baking, icing and decorating cupcakes, Kate (right) and Lily get to lick the bowl. As you can see, no drop of batter is wasted.

A portrait of Mommy by Kate

Kate loves to draw. Kate has a lot of patience. She will work on a piece until it is perfect. She erases many times until she gets what she wants. Here is her portrait of Mommy. Don't you love my hair? Those are my glasses, by the way. I'm really excited about this desire of hers since I'm a "wanna be artist." Interestingly, Lily's art talent is very similar, but she enjoys other things more (like dominating airspace by chatting while Kate is busy drawing).
