Did you get a tattoo for the kids?
I have 3 already and I always said I would get my 4th and probably last tattoo for my kid(s). Obviously I had no idea I'd have twins! LOL!
Anywho, I've been thinking about this for months, and I think I finally came up with my design. I'm going to do snowflakes because (1) they were born during the snowiest winter I have ever experienced since moving to MN 10 years ago and (2) because of the old saying that no two snowflakes are exactly alike. 
It's cheesy as hell, but I really like it. I think I'll get it done this summer. Now I just have to decide where to put it. All of my tats are in work-friendly places. I don't want any more of them on my back, and I'm definitely not getting my other foot done! That first foot tattoo sucked!

Re: Did you get a tattoo for the kids?
I don't have any and I don't plan on one, but I love your snowflake idea! Esp the no two are alike part, very cute
You'll have to pip when you get it!
I think the snowflakes are a great idea! How about somewhere on your leg? If you put it on your thigh somewhere it can always be covered up. I know you said you don't want any on your back, but what about the back of your neck? I have one there and it's super easy to cover with my hair. And it honestly didn't hurt AT ALL. It felt like someone put a vibrator on the back of my neck to be honest lol
I have 3 tattoos already and I definately want to add one more for the kids. The kids and I are all Scorpios and I already have a scorpion on my forearm. I think I'm going to put two little scorpions by the big one that will represent the kids.
Definately post a picture when you get it done!!
DH and I got DD's hand print (she was about 11mo when we took the handprint). I got mine on my right shoulder/back I can partially see it without a mirror! It's kinda like she's got her hand on my shoulder!
We definately plan on doing something for the Triplets. And we love the hand print. So we are probably going to try to do their teeny tiny newborn prints, and see if we can get one that looks nice. It's so tough when they're newborns, they clench their hands all the time!
I like your ideas of the snowflakes, depends how big you go where you could get it!
I did. The triplets are Cancer's so I got this
I hear what you are saying about the foot tattoo, no fun at all. I think the pp's suggestion of the side is a good one, or maybe on the underside (like close to your body) of your upper arm?
I think the snowflake idea is really cute, There is no problem with cheesy in my book. I'm planning on getting one once I get my weight down that has a kitten (for kathleen, my kitty kat) playing with a spider (for charlotte) hanging from a gladiolus (their birth flower I think). I think my idea is pretty cheesy but it makes me smile every time I think about it, that's my basic criteria for stuff like that. I'm either going to get it as a half sleeve or a side piece. It really depends on how everything looks.
Good luck and post a pic when you get it done.
I LOVE the snowflake idea! Not cheesy!!!
I have no tattoos, but I have been contemplating getting 1. I would like to get 3 tiny sets of footprints, and either in between each set, or next to them, I want to put the LOs initials. I have an older DD, so her set of feet would be just slightly bigger than my 2 DSs sets. And DDs set would be pink, the other 2 blue.
Thanks
