Twinsies at Nine Months

A few weeks ago, Judah had a couple play dates with his twinsie, Ryan, who's just 3 days younger than Judah. Pics are courtesy of Ryan's awesome "pappa-razzi."


It's always so fun comparing notes with Ryan's mommy and finding out what kind of mischief he's into these days.


Judah and Ryan both have tons of hair, lots of teeth (and drool), and love their solids. But when it comes to gross motor development, they could not be more different.


Ryan has always been 1000x more physically developed than Judah. He's been crawling for weeks, and walking like a pro (while holding onto his mom's hands), while Judah still doesn't care to roll over (even though he can do it), much less crawl, and walks like a drunken sailor.


When I held Ryan, it was like holding pure muscle--very lean and taut.


Judah on the other hand...well we've all seen the generous rolls on him, which Ryan's mommy likes to grab--who can blame her!


At our home, Ryan showed Judah his crawling skills while Judah sat there completely unmotivated to join in the activity. Hey, you don't get a big booty by working off all your calories!

Judah's more the thinker and very laid back while his twinsie is Mr. Active.

Be careful what you wish for...once Judah does get moving, you'd probably wish for days when he would just stay put :)
