When you take pics of your multiples...

do you always put them in the same order?  My mom brought it to my attention that in all our pics Lily is on the left and Hannah is on the right, with my siggy pic being the exception.  I went back and looked and she is totally right.  My mom said it was weird to see Hannah on the left...lol  Now we have just continued to put Lily on the left since.  Anyone else find they do this???

when they were babies- yes, i almost always had Gibby on the left and Gray on the right- b/c i was setting them down... and that's the way they were in my belly (from my view at least).

but once they were mobile- i didn't care b/c i was just happy to have them in the same picture at all!

Pretty much this.

Luke is always on the left.  It was a tip from the NICU nurse to do that in pictures so you knew when they were older.  It's pretty much stuck (although not necessary since Sam got his spot).  I agree that it'll all fly out the window once they're mobile!

I don't. Although when i'm taking a picture, its very rare that they are not crying or Tage isn't putting his hands in Taylen's face lol the good pictures of both of them together are so far and few inbetween...

I did this because they are ID and were soooo hard to tell apart for the first 3yrs.  Its only been in the last year that they have started looking different.  

It was easier to get in the habit of having one always on the right/left than to try and figure out who is who once the picture was taken.

For planned pics of the babies, yes, I always put M on the left and B on the right... the order in which they were born.  Siggy pic was not a "planned" pic!

We do it in pictures and the cribs so that we don't confuse who is who in our sleepy haze. They're so ID, we're still having trouble telling them apart at 4 months.

I didn't, but my boys looked different from birth. I can see how it makes sense if you have IDs!

Nope, it's about 50/50 when I look back at pictures of them.

I put them in order from A-C most of the time.

Yes, we do.  We did this from the beginning.  Lauren (L) is always on the Left.  And Kate on the right.  Their breastmilk/formula ratios were always different.  Kate is my tiny one and she needs more calories.  Since the Dr. Brown's bottle all look alike, it was our way of keeping the bottles in order. 

It helped the nurses in the NICU know which side of the fridge to grab their food from.  The nurses would have all of Laurens stuff on the left side of cabinets, etc..... diapers, etc.  (the girls even wear different size diapers and clothes...so it help us stay organized.)

So we usually have them this way in planned pics too.

We just stick them in whatever position they will sit in and always have!  Now it is more about who is getting along that day

No they are always just random, wherever they are is where they stay.
