I always vowed to not compare my children to others, be it cousins, friends or even siblings. All kids are obviously different and I expect that Jude will be very different from Jonah - heck, he already is. But it's funny when you have a second boy, you pull out an outfit that brings back a specific memory from your first born and next thing you know you are digging up the photo matching that memory. Before you know it, you're comparing noses, eye color and neck rolls!
When the fleece bear made an appearance this weekend, I couldn't help but remember Jonah at the Halloween parade 3 (yes, 3) Halloweens ago in the same outfit. So I pulled out the picture, and laughed - these boys look like brothers! (Jonah was about 10 weeks, Jude is only 6 weeks)
Everyone has been discussing who Jude looks like, Mom, Dad, Brother .... as he snoozes on my lap, I don't see much of Jonah in him. Here is Jonah (on top) at 2 months and Jude (on bottom) the same age. What do you think?
