Of course, at this time of the year, fans of the family are likely looking forward to another category of family portraits: The four are known for their epic family Halloween costumes.
Back in 2010, Harris and Burtka told People they were “super excited/nervous/thrilled” to become fathers in the fall. Then, on Oct. 12, Harris told the world about the twins, who were born via a surrogate.
“All of us are healthy, healthy, tired, and a little pukey,” he shared on Twitter on that memorable day.
Now, Harris and Burtka must start preparing for the significant milestones of parenting teenagers! Good luck, dads!
