Noah and Asher: A Comparison

Sometimes I look down at Asher and get a feeling of déjà vu because something he does makes him look exactly like Noah. Other times, I look down and think that he doesn't look much like Noah at all. I just had to do a side by side comparison. I know how much they change so their similarities might come and go, but I had to do it anyway.

I'm pretty sure you can tell who is who between the two of them but there are definitely some similarities.


Differences: It looks like Asher has more of a round face with those big cheeks while Noah has more of an oval face. Asher looks a little bulkier and has those squishy baby legs. One of the major differences is Asher's dimple in his right cheek. The other big difference is that hair! I guess Noah had nice hair from day one, whereas Asher's hair looks a little more wild. (I wonder if their hair is any indication of their personalities?!?)

Similarities
: Their overall appearance is pretty similar. Their eyes and eyebrows seem to look alike. Their noses look alike. But I think what gives me those déjà vu moments is that mouth, especially with their little grins. Even their pouty expression looks the same.

Either way, I love my boys!!!

A Toddler's Tasty Creations

The other night I made a Tex-Mex style dish and I put a dollop of sour cream in my bowl. Noah said his typical "I want that". So I gave him his own dollop and he proceeded to dip his chip in it. I'm pretty sure this was Noah's first taste of sour cream and he didn't like it. His face wrinkled up and had "yuck" written all over it. He loves "dip", usually salsa or cheese dip, so he tried again, but had the same reaction. He ended up finding a substitute much better suited for him.


Who needs sour cream when you have lime yogurt? Yes, my son is dipping his tortilla chips in lime yogurt. Yummy.
