With all the spring clothes coming out, I am finding it irresistible to NOT buy the boys matching shirts and shorts. ?It's dorky isn't it? I just need someone to tell me... be honest! ?
Well my #2 isn't here yet but I will have them in coordinating outfits for certain summer cookouts/outings etc. (they are different genders) and I think it will be cute. Your boys will look adorable in matching outfits.
My girls have different personalities and look good in different colors so I generally dress them individually. That's not to say I never would coordinate outfits. I just usually don't.

Oh, I fully intend to do it too. Although, not for too long. Since they're both girls and not far apart in age, I don't want them mistaken as twins. Don't know if they'll look alike yet, of course.
My sister dresses her 2u2 boys alike sometimes and it's adorable. I'll be dressing my 2 girls similarly at holidays (already got the smocked Christmas dresses).
I do, and I think it is adorable. DH hates it though, so I try to limit it. But sometimes I dress them in the same outfits, other times same outfits but different colors/styles of the same shirt or pants.
Another DH who hates it so the compromise was matching jammies.
Nothing cuter than seeing those cute little footie jammies running down the hall together after bath!
I find myself coordinating them frequently - same color shirt, etc.
I do have some 100% matching tops and I tend to put them in those when we're going to be some place crowded and I know I'll be searching for them (big park, event, etc). It's just easier to put my eyes on each of them if I'm only looking for one shirt.
Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.
Not everyday but there are times that we do. We do often buy the girls the same things if they both want them and they now pick their own clothes. We have done it on purpose on rare occasion.
I do not have 2u2 - but close. Yes, I dress them the same sometimes. It is easier now that they are both off & running to dress them in one color so you look for the same thing.
Sometimes I do! Like when we have a special occasion or pictures being taken! I try to my son the same thing or similar. I also try to DD a matching outfit

LOL, pretty much every 24m outfit I've bought for #1 this summer I've also caved and bought the same in 6m. Actually a young male ringing up my first matching purchases at Kohls asked if I was having twins. I wanted to tell him that yes, I was having one huge baby and one very small one.
On very rare occasions they are in the same or similar outfits or pajamas. I'm usually not a fan of the matchy-matchy. I will probably put them in very similar or matching outfits if we are doing something that would be crowded (like a fair something) so it will be easier to find them.
On a daily basis I put them in whatever and DD2 pretty much exclusively wears DD1's hand me downs. For any type of holiday or event, though, they match! I love having them in matching dresses! Yes, I'm THAT dorky mom lol!

But no - I don't think it's dorky.
If mine were the same sex, I'd probably coordinate their clothes sometimes. Not matching, probably, but coordinating.
I have a boy and a girl and will probably coordinate their holiday (Easter, Xmas) outfits.
