How many twin, triplet, quads and more! families are on the DIS?

[Sabo]

We have 3 year old twin boys and have not taken them to WDW yet.

I have fraternal boys that will be 7 in August. I only dress them alike at Disney World. It just makes them easier to find. My dad did buy them their favorite shirts in two different shades of blue. Both shirts say " I'm the good one. My brother's the brat."

We have 8 year-old quads: GGGB. Because their bday is in April it is often over Easter break so of course that means WDW! On bday #7 we stayed at WL and on their actual birthday we got to be the flag family of the day -- that was a really special Disney experience. Next WDW bday will be when we turn 9 in '06 and we're planing a surprise of 3 nights for just our family before we meet up with extended family for a Grand Gathering at GF. And regarding dressing alike - when they were younger I'd do it all the time especially if we'd be in a big crowd. Now that they are older the one thing I still try to keep the same (or at least similar) is bathing suits so they kids are easier to spot at the pools or water parks - and the brighter the colors, the better!

16 month old twin boys. We never dress our boys alike (almost never). We're planning to celebrate their third birthday at WDW in Feb 2007.

I have 2 year old identical boys and a 3 year old daughter. 3 babies in 13 months! We are going to WDW in Sept. for 6 days. It is our first trip. DH thinks they are too young, but I think they are the perfect age. I dress the boys in matching outfits because it is so cute, and they are still too young to object!!
I just got a new Maclaren double stroller for our trip. We love it. Will probably rent a stroller for DD.
We are staying at Pop Century in connecting rooms. It was $1000 cheaper than getting a 1 bedroom at the least expensive DVC. (renting from Disney, not with points).
The trip will have its challenges, but the children's reactions will be priceless!
Planning a Disney Cruise for 2007!

I thought you had triplets by looking at your kids (adorable!) photo! Irish Triplets for you!

 

[flminivanmama]

LOL everyone does

the twins were preemies and are pretty small for their age and the single is average/large - he was the same weight (as the twins) by the time he was 6 months old and the same height by around 18 months LOL

It's probably easier to say that they ARE triplets than to explain it to everyone! Your boys are adorable and WTG on the weight loss!

I love the halloween cosumes!

a lot of times when strangers stop me and say "triplets?" (like the answer somehow effects their life ) I just smile and make a non committal hmm an keep walking.


I realized last night I never answered the "how do you do disney" questions

1. strollers. definitely. a double and a single (both umbrellas since they don't use them any more at home. they are small and have short legs and would never be able to walk that long - my goodness on the day we went to MK we walked 11 miles! (I wore a pedometer) - but more importantly I like to be able to contain them! ( )

2. matching clothes. I NEVER EVER dress them a like at home but in the parks I find it easier to identify them quickly if they are all wearing one color (or stripes or tie dye).

3. rooms. We like to travel with a set of grandparents (or two!). they take the second room and one child usually sleeps with them. We also get a built on baby sitter that way

Hi going to WDW in September. Wondering if anyone has a Chicco double stroller and how you like it?

 

[kerry34]

We have 5 yr old twin girls, also DD12, DD10, DS9. Twins have been to Disney twice, once when they were two and then again this past April.
Strollers are a must for sure and makes touring the parks so much easier. As far as dressing them alike, I pretty much took their lead, some days they like to and others they dont. My twins were like night and day on the last trip, but we had a ball with them. Have a great time!!!

My identical twin girls are 18. They took their first trip to WDW at 2. I learned the hard way that I should have always labeled photos of them when they were little with which was which. I never ever had trouble telling them apart in person, but looking back at old pictures, now I'm not always sure!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! oh my 5 was such a big deal for me!! I just couldn't (can't) believe five whole years had passed since they were born! it's true what they say "the days are long, but the years are short!" enjoy!

I have 5 year old boy and girl twins. The biggest question I always get is "Are they identical?" I just can't help but to laugh when people ask me that! They are a bit small for their age, they are only about 39-40 inches tall, but size doesn't stop them!
Here mine sleeping in the car together. (They don't always get along this good!)
