We had two patriotic outfits for the babies. One we were given as a gift last summer, but it was too big then. I don't know that I'd necessarily say that it was too small this summer (it is a 0-3), but the style is forgiving. The flaw was not in the sizing but the design. It's a top with elastic at the top, so it kept sliding down (and the shoulder straps did absolutely nothing as you will see in the photos - and they couldn't be re-tied...they're sewn to that length). And it's paired with some cute white eyelit bloomers. Mike thought they should both be standing on a street corner, so we changed outfits. 
Here are photos of their other patriotic outfits for the holiday. Much better, huh? Not that the others weren't super cute (in my opinion)...just not practical. We'll break these out again for the 4th of July (and in between then and now I'm sure).
Oh, on another note, the girls begin Little Gym today. We're very excited. It's just a movement and play class I suppose with music. As kids get older, it turns more toward a gymnastics feel. We did a demo class two weeks ago and really enjoyed it, so we signed up for summer sememster. It's at 12:15 every Wed, so Mike and I are going to tag team our lunch hours, and Joanna will be there the whole time so we've got 2 adults each week. We did a demo of not only Little Gym but two other places, and what we found with twins that can't walk yet is that you really do need 2 parents/supervisors. Once they can walk, I'm sure that won't be the case, but for now, it's good that Mike and I can both show up on our lunch hours to help and see the girls.
