No, they're not twins.

I took the littles to the mall yesterday, and some old lady asked me if they were TWINS.  Um, really?  DS was sitting in the double stroller eating a pretzel stick, and DD was lying in my lap on a bench drinking a bottle.  The picture below clearly shows my children do NOT appear to be twins.  I expected we'd probably get this a lot when they're like 5 and 6 or older, but now?  People are ... weird.

LOL people are weird! DH and I were just discussing this the other day. We are thinking that by the time they are 2 and 3 that we will start getting the twins comments

Yep - I'm ready for it too...but not this early!

We get that all the time (pretty much every time we go out now), and it started pretty early for us too! I mean DS2 is a big boy, but I still can't believe people thought/think they're twins.

Cute picture of your two little ones!

I went shopping at Kohls with DD1 when I was extremely pregnant with DD2. I bought matching dresses in 24m and 3m sizes. The cashier asked if I had twins. Yes, one large twin that is in the stroller cart and one tiny twin that is under my shirt.

I get this all the time with my youngest two and they do not look anything alike.  They are a little over two years apart!  My DS #3 is a big boy, but really there is still two years between them!  Prepare yourselves.  What is funny is that my oldest two, who are twenty months apart, I have never been asked that!

LOL love it!

LOL - I did the opposite to someone once.  She had 2 boys and I believe she once even referred to one boy as her oldest.  Well I asked how far apart they were and she said "a couple minutes".  I was so embarrassed!

Yep, you'll get it a lot.  I got it from the time my kids were baby/toddler too.  Makes no sense, but I get it even more now.  People cannot believe they are 21 mos apart.
