We don't use the identifier and, like nikkianni, when people comment on how much the twins look like DH (or me, occasionally), we just smile and say thank you and move along. We are simply Mommy and Daddy. The girls are well aware of their adoption story and know that "C" is their birthmom and they grew in her tummy - and they share that with people they choose (their kindergarten teacher for one).
My dad has developed a habit of telling any and all that the girls were adopted. I'm waiting for the right moment to explain to him (without hurting his feelings because he has the best of intentions and ADORES the girls) that it's their story to tell, and we choose not to announce it to people.
