2 1/2 Month Comparison

It is amazing how strikingly different siblings can be. Even my pregnancies with each of my kids were polar opposites (Brax-a breeze, Harper-made me not ever want to be prego again!) and I'm learning more and more about how even tho they have the same parents, Brax and Harper are nothing alike! Brax was always (and still is) extremely animated and easy to amuse. He was a very busy, antsy baby, and is full of energy. Harper, on the other hand, is very content, quiet and laid back-she loves to just sit and snuggle. And the girl makes me do cartwheels and stand on my head for the smiles you see in pictures-she is not as easily impressed with my photography antics as Brax was! She usually looks very serious in her shots, giving me a look that says, "Mom, you are SUCH a dork," where he was usually grinning from ear to ear with his mouth wide open.


Here are several photos of each of them around 10 weeks old.
Harper has so much more hair than he did, and I always thought he had alot!
Each pic of Harper is followed by one of Brax. I just love going back thru his baby pics... I can't believe he's such a big boy already!

Thanks for sharing! LOVE Harper's hair..ya know, the part that sticks up!! TOO SWEET!!! Is it a cowlick (sp?) or her crown? (My Ethyn has a double crown, which in turn, makes/made his hair stick up like a faux hawk!) I'm sooooo glad that you let her hair 'hang wild' and not slick it down. You will definitely be super blessed to look back at her pics and see that cute 'do.'
