unknown plant in my garden

[rafiwinters]

I just took this picture in my garden and wonder if anyone knows what this is? A Google image search isn't working well. What are these plants, how invasive are they, and how do I get rid of them?

ETA: I can't seem to get the picture to load right, so here's the description: a short seedling with two butterfly-shaped leaves. Lots of them in my garden. Any notions?

Thanks for the link. I recognize some of those seedlings but am unable to determine whether it's morning glory or bindweed. I gather they're very similar. In any case, I've decided I don't want them taking over (very invasive), so I've pulled up/cut down a lot of them today.

Yeah, as seedlings, they look remarkably identical.

If you didn't plant them and there's no definite morning glories anywhere nearby, chances are they were very likely bindweed.

Either way, I pulled/cut down all of them that I could reach.
