We were getting the M&Ms ready for the day and the M&Ms were both laying in the crib in just their diapers. Mike and I were taken back by the size difference between them. Thankfully Mikey is the larger of the two hahaha. Despite the size difference they both seem to be growing great but we will know more next week at their 4 month check up.. how exciting!
Mikey was 16.2 pounds last week when i took him to Dr.S for his reflux and when i got on the scale w/ Michaella she was between 14 & 15 pounds. Mikey is clearly much taller than Michaella though its hard to see in the pics. His hands and feet are MASSIVE where as Michaella's are dainty and feminine. Though Mikey is heavy i think for 3 months i would by no means call him fat he is EXTREMELY solid unfortunately Michaella is a little chubadutes.. but she makes chubby look ADORABLE! They seem to be growing like bean sprouts and its something new and amazing everyday.
They may be twins but they are certainly two different kids. Michaella was born w/ VERY dark hair and it looks like its coming back in dark (she lost most of it the last few weeks). She has the bluest eyes and definitely wears the pants in this house. Mikey is much more reserved but a giant mama's boy to say the least. He has always had Mike's color hair (light brown) and he appears to have either green/hazel eyes or they may be turning brown. Even their skin tone and complexion is totally different. Michaella doesn't have olive skin but she has a darker complexion and never had baby acne. Mikey is a little lighter skin toned and has had bouts of acne and other tiny blemishes.
When we are out and about many people say "ohh they look so much a like" I honestly don't see it?!?!? To me they couldn't be more different. They are fraternal twins (hence the boy/girl) they are no more alike that a normal brother and sister they just happen to share mommies tummy.
TO me they are night and day and i cant get over how much they are changing and growing everyday. Well you be the judge for yourself maybe i just have mommy vision...
They may appear to be the same length in this picture but if i had to guess Mikey is probably 2 inches if not more longer than Michaella
Here you can kind of see how much more massive/solid Mikey is than Michaella
Look at the adorable feet... i swear Mikey has a size 12 shoe hahaha just kidding.
Michaella has the prettiest most dainty hands and Mikey has strong big hands
And i just thought this pic was funny so i put it on here... "what the heck is dad doing mom??"
I feel so blessed to have TWO beautiful healthy happy babies. God is so amazing! They are the center of my universe and some days it may be hard and i wonder what 1 baby would be like... but i would never trade this for the world. Its amazing to see how you raise 2 children relatively the same and they can be 2 totally separate people. I know they are boy/girl but they couldn't be more different if i tried to make them that way. It just shows that God is awesome and from day one they were born with amazing little fun personalities. Every night i lay in bed after tucking them in a wonder what they will be like when they are 1...5... 16... or 25. I love this its like an amazing movie that just goes on and on and never stops it gets better everyday and all the new twists and turns keep you enchanted. You wonder what could possibly be around the next bend and how could things get any better. But things get better everyday and new exciting adventure happen every day. Even if God said to me today i will let you see into the future to see what your kids will be like i don't think i would... this ride is wayyyyy too much fun i don't want to spoil the ending!!!!!!
