My twins... 2 years apart!

From the very first moment that we saw Siena, we have talked incessantly about how much she looks like her brother Chase! I'm not exaggerating when I say that I hear, "those two look SO much alike" from at least 3 people a day. What's most amazing to me is that I even hear it from strangers or new friends who never saw Chase as a baby... so they think Siena looks like Chase does now. I'm not sure that I see that... I just think they looked the same as babies. And even that feeling is sort of decreasing for me, as I get to know their personalities more. It's sort of like when you meet identical twins: as first you think they look so much alike that you'll never be able to tell them apart... but then you get to know them better and eventually you get to a point where you wonder how you ever thought they looked alike at all!

Here are some pictures of Chase at the same ages as Siena so you can compare for yourself. I wish I could put them side by side on the blog (does anyone know how to do that?)... but since I can't, I'll post Chase's picture first and then Siena's.

Just 1 day old:

6 months:
