Ok. I know this is the real reason you all tune into the blog. Here is a picture of the boys from the "photo shoot" in our living room last weekend - it was actually more like semi-organized chaos. It is much harder than you might think to get a moderately good shot of two babies at the same time (throw in a three-year-old and it gets a little crazy!). In this photo, Luke is the big guy on the left and Leo is on the right. Although we have not been to the doctor lately to have them weighed, we can tell they are both growing really well. When you eyeball them, they look pretty similar in size, but if you lift them up, you notice a big difference. I suspect Leo is still a couple pounds less than Luke. We are still spending a fair amount of time hanging out with them in the middle of the night - Leo more so than Luke. You can't really tell from their paparazzi flash-induced stares, but they are very interactive and like to smile a lot. I can already tell that Luke has his dad's laid back personality. He usually wakes up in the morning with a smile on his face. (Those of you that know even a little about me know that he certainly does not get that from me!) Leo seems to have this whole thing figured out pretty well. He will cry a little until he gets picked up. Once he's in your arms, he gives a huge toothless grin. He's no dummy.
I love this picture! My kids figured things out pretty quickly too. I will never forget thinking Sydney was in pain or something while I was driving, but as soon as I stopped and picked her up, she smiled that "toothless grin" too. :)
ReplyDeleteand they weren't laid back babies :)
ENJOY! They are adorable.
