Two peas, both 5 months old

"Do they look alike?" they ask. "Yes..." I'll answer back at them "She's a spitting image of her big brother." But looking at these pictures, both taken when each was five months old, I really don't think they do. There are so many differences between them, but one thing is the same; you could eat them they look so delicious!

When I remember Little Guy at this age, I can’t help but smile. My smile, similar to the one he has in this picture; a wide open mouth smile. He was a very happy baby. Upon meeting him and looking into his baby blues, you’d melt into a puddle. Time hasn’t jaded that smile of his, he still laughs and smiles and finds humor in almost everything. As he grows I hope his passion for life does too, this kid was born knowing life should be lived to the fullest.

 At five months old, Love Bug already understands the importance of relationships and being around people that you love. When picked up, she immediately touches the person’s face, feeling her way through their features. She does not like to be alone, but more than that, she likes to be in the middle of all of the action. Watching her big brother is one of her favorite pastimes. When I watch her watch him, it's obvious how badly she wants to join him in his adventures. In the middle of chaos, surrounded by loved ones, is where she belongs.
