They may look alike, but....


My little sweeties are quite different. Everyone knows that G was WAY chubbier, and also that he slept MUCH BETTER, but here are a few more things I'm noticing:

  • Leah gives hugs! I love it. She will wrap her arms around my neck, especially when I rescue her from something.
  • Leah is a hair puller! The entire time she nurses, she tried to rip out my hair. Probably G was just so focused on the milk, he didn't have time for anything else. ;)
  • Leah likes her back to be scratched/tickled. Gideon hated it at this age!
  • Jabba the Gideon was more mobile at this age... shocking, right??? Leah still hasn't mastered moving forward. G had a delightful little army crawl at this age.
  • Leah stopped wanting to sleep in the bouncer months ago. With Gideon, it was a surefire way to get him to sleep, and to take a long nap. We slept him in that thing until this happened, and even then I still tried a few more times, just to make sure it wasn't a fluke! ;)
  • Leah gives people the stink eye and loves doing her stink face.. G was quicker to smile, especially at strangers. 
NEITHER ONE:
  • falls asleep easily in our arms
  • transfers while asleep... do some kids actually do this?!?!?
  • was overly anxious to be mobile
  • are big snugglers... guess we have to have a third to get a snuggler!

THEY BOTH: 
  • LOVE THE JUMPEROO! Oh my goodness, that thing is worth it's weight in gold!
  • said "Dada" as their first word... how sweet. HUMPH! 
  • love food! Some days, Leah eats more than Gideon. 
  • Love keeping their special lovies close by. ;)

  • Only take the hideous hospital pacifiers 
  • are the cutest, sweetest kids alive!!!!! :)
