Synchronized cries

My babies don't cry?! That was my question to myself for the first month of their arrival. They were so gentle and making the "ah, ah, ah" sound. It was quite cute. Well, no surprises, after one month, they started to cry their lungs out like other babies. They didn't at first because they were pre-mature and their lungs were not developed well enough.

Well, that was when I started to notice the synchronized cries. One cried out loud for something bothering her. The other one would follow even though nothing was obviously wrong. Maybe because she was irritated by her sister's cry, we don't know. Then, when the first one heard the other one cried louder than her, she stopped. Once she stopped, the other sister stopped, as well. All the sudden it became very quiet for a few seconds. What's next?! The synchronized cries! Together the ups and the downs of the cries were all synchronized!

Their cries got louder and louder now a days. Today after the third meal, they had their choir session for me. I wanted ear plugs badly. At one point, they were so tired from crying, they had to pause to breath. Then, they looked at each other to see how hard her sister cried and again expanded their lung at once, together, with perfect timing!
