A Longitudinal Look


Sarah and Juan are now three months old. This morning, Juanito woke up looking older than when he went to sleep last night. Sometimes we can almost see them growing before our very eyes. But for the most part, the changes are subtle and noticeable only through a longitudinal gaze, as shown here. (Click on each photo strip to see a bigger version if you wish.)



The twins' most recent development is that they now really engage with us, with friends, and, increasingly, with each other. Tonight they exchanged gazes and cooed at each other while holding hands. We parents played key roles of course, holding them up next to each other, but we still feel lucky just to have been there.

OMG what a GREAT picture of them. Love those pants. And you got them both smiling and with their eyes open. Congrats! Parenting photo nirvana!

And I love Sara's hands in her 3 month shot. She's just so scrumptious! Love, Susan

OMG is right! I just want to eat them up! Have there ever been more beautiful babies in the world? Their smiles are incredible. Maybe when they are in their terrible twos you will look back at these photos with longing but you will always treasure this time.
Love to you all,
Aunt Sue

Is it just me, or do they look more alike now than they did when they were younger? They are both gorgeous, and I love the personalities that shine through their smiles!
