Babies + Berets = Blurry

Babies don't wear hats. You've never seen it happen. If a photo of a baby exists with a hat on, then it has been photoshopped.

I bought hats for the girls as my only impulse buy where I thought, "Oh that is so cute." That same thought that keeps entire chains of baby clothing alive. Since then, they have grown out of the dresses, but only recently grown into the berets.

The problem with hats is by the time you place the hat on the baby head, remove your hand, get the camera lined up, and push the button, the hat is gonzo:

But, BUT, if you put a pot lid on their head, they will sit with contemplative stillness for as long as you want:

Thanks Camy.

Vegetables: carrots and avocado (yes, fruit, but if its green, it counts). Vitamins: check.

I laughed out loud as I began to scroll down and realize how MANY pictures you had taken trying to get those little girls in hats. What are the odds of getting twins both wearing hats at the same time? Must be astronomical... The pot lid? She was probably contemplating the ramifications of a father who had gone 'round the bend.

How do you have the energy to keep up with 2 babies? I am impressed!!!

It is so fun to see all of the pictures and videos!

At least you did not get the typical Camy look, "Do you really know what you are doing?"

Totally laughed out loud! I loved the pot lid pic (especially when compared to the beret pics). Hilarious! What cute girls!

That is so true and funny I was on the floor: Layla wears a blue plastic bowl on her head in the shower but no hats outside of that one bowl. She still has the beret you got her and nope it does not stay on
