What's the difference between a baby?
A lot of people have asked me if and how Annie and Olivia are different. My answer was that I didn't know because I hardly remember Annie being a baby and Olivia is just starting to show her personality. I can tell you that right now the difference is that Olivia is sleeping soundly and Annie is up in her room crying for more milk, or more toothpaste, or someone else to say goodnight too. (While we were on vacation she told me in an attempt to delay falling asleep that she wanted to say goodnight to "that Monster". That didn't really work. What did work was the next night when she said she wanted to say goodnight to "That Man". What man? I asked. She pointed over my shoulder and said "That Yellow Man". Okay, that kinda freaked me out and I was the one not getting much sleep that night thinking she had really seen some mysterious Yellow Man...but back to the post at hand) So the differences that I have noticed between the 2 babies...They have differently shaped eyes, Olivia looks chubbier than I remember Annie being. Olivia needs to be held when she is tired, but doesn't really want to be held when she is awake. Annie would fall asleep on her own. Olivia talks a lot more than Annie did and her cry is a lot louder too. Annie's cry could barely be heard from the next room. Olivia is already starting to be afraid of things, namely Annie, and Annie was pretty much fearless until a few months ago. That is about all I can think of that is different between the two, after all Olive has only been around for a few months, sometimes I don't think I even know her at all yet! I guess the same thing applies to Annie though too.
