THE change was so slow,
it seemed to happen in an instant.
The Twins can hold their heads up.
Dad was wondering when he would be able to carry either of
them facing forward in the baby carrier strapped to his chest. The
determinative factor is their ability to support their own head. So he gave it a try. They both were
able to hold them up without assistance.
Dad tests EJs readiness to be carried facing forward. He passed. |
Interestingly, EJ's hands are restricted from movement in this position, but EJ seems to prefer that rather than having them flail about. Dad has noted that when soothing son to sleep, holding his hands together helps him fall to sleep faster than without. It might be similar to swaddling. Liesel doesn't like her hands restrained. She prefers the freedom to flail. But then he is the passive surfer-dude personality and she is the control freak.
These two are about as identical as night and day. Dad once quipped that they are less like twins and more like siblings that by happenstance were born at the same time.
