I just took Charlotte to the doctor and was shocked to discover that she was the same weight as Little S at the same age. She´s the exact same length too.
When I look at these photos together, both taken at five months old, I am struck with the realization that they have the exact same hair. Their eyes are completely different though. I know that Little S has the almond eyes of his father´s paternal side of the family, very pretty. Charlotte seems to have these big round curious eyes. She´s always looking at everything! She needs those big eyes. She also has her dads ears! They stick out a little at the top like little fairy ears. I´ll have to remind her not to have her hair too short on the sides! As for the face shape we´ll have to see because Charlotte seems to be carrying extra weight in her cheeks and we can´t really imagine what she´ll look like later when she slims out.
Little S was such a delicate featured boy that people often mistook him for a girl. Even if he had trucks on his shirts people said "awww she´s so cute!" Charlotte always gets mistaken for a boy baby. Did someone mix up the genetic cocktail?
It freaks me out a little looking at this photo montage. It´s no secret that we did IVF for both kids but what many don´t know is that when I was pregnant with Little S I was initially pregnant with twins. It makes me realize what it would have been like! I was sad for the loss of the twin but whew! how do twin parents do it? I can´t imagine having both at the same time (even if it would be cute to push them around in a double stroller looking so similar like they do).
* I´ll post about the pediatrician visit on my other blog.

Her face looks MORE feminine to me than his does, but maybe because I am used to seeing pictures of them, and I know how his face matured.
They are both adorable babies though. You sure do make them cute.
Gah! Her cheeks kill me! How do you not spend all day kissing them?
Yay I love these comparisons, did it loads with my two! Actualy I'm surprised as I always thought your two were very alike but comparing these two photos I can see real differances. I love both they're eyes...both beautiful and blue but in differant ways. They are very alike as well though, all I can say is that your husband's genes must be mighty strong ;)
Ugh hangover! "they're" = "their" obviously!
Also forgot to say that people always would call Jaya "he" until her curls came in...even when she was dressed top to toe in pink!
****Crazy Blog Stalker Alert!****
Where's the post about the pedi? I've been checking out "When Push Comes to Shove" (best mommy blog title ever, btw) and it's not up yet!
When you say that I am thinking of that movie with Bridget Fonda--Single White Female haha. Wellllll we got invited to yet another Mexican kiddie birthday party so I´m all wrapped up in the prep that goes with it...making the birthday card, shopping, gift wrapping, and presenting my perfect children (HA!) with clean fingernails.
Alas no time for writing and catching up on blogs. But tomorrow is another day.
Jemma I love all the comparison photos you´ve done. You inspired me to do them.
I think S and C look alot alike!! What blessings they are! They are both gorgeous!!
