Can't. Wait.

Are you happy about this? Can't tell by the tone of your post. Yes, two boys are easy to match! I don't do identical outfits...have never had the means or the desire. So many of our clothing has been gifted to us, new and used. But, boys' stuff is often navy, gray, green, orange, red, or khaki...easy to coordinate! Stripes are my fall-back plan. I usually have them in stripes if I want them to look nicer and coordinated, to some degree. :)
Yeah, it's fun. I don't think we have any matching daytime clothes, but lots of matching PJs, and that's pretty cute. But now that I think about it, actually now they wear uniforms to school (at this age it's jogging suits, but once they start elementary it's more of a typical uniform) and that's pretty cute to see them in their matching suits. Of course, they also "match" with about 300 other kids, but still...
Oh, I only read this today -- sorry for the delay!!
I LOVE, ADORE, matching outfits for my boys. I probably have some pics in my blog I could show you I agree that it's extremely cute. Oh, yeah! And now that they have two cousins, we've been trying to match the four of them (fifth picture down): photo from Christmas
Although for the four cousins we usually do pajama matching: here's the pajama one

I am happy about it. And I did mean "matching". I don't know if this makes me corny or what, but i think it can be supercute when done right. Here's the pictures that inspired me this morning:
