Our friends came up from Louisville for Ana's birthday party. We've been friends with the Carter's since neither of us had kids! Anyway, Drew and Emma are only five days apart so Amanda and I shared our pregnancy experiences over the phone (she was in Texas and I was in Massachusetts).
Drew came right on time and Emma was three weeks early.
Drew was almost 10 pounds and 23 inches long and Emma was only 5 lbs. 12 oz and 19 inches long.
Drew rolled over at three weeks, Emma was nine months old.
Drew crawled at eight months, Emma was eleven months.
Drew walked at eleven months, Emma was sixteen months!
So there were huge differences in their early development but if you saw them now, you would never have guessed. They played all day together with minor bumps (physically and emotionally) and I'm grateful that they get along so well.
Next challenge: Drew teaching Emma how to ride a bike without training wheels. He's been riding his bike since last summer!
