Visiting the Buddingtons

Olivia and I spent the afternoon visiting our friends Laura and her newborn son, Nathan. You may remember Yale mentioning that Nathan was born 2 days before Olivia. I used to think that all newborns look basically the same, but seeing these two next to each other proved that theory wrong. The first striking difference is their size. Nathan has already acquired that chunky-baby look that I love ?fat rolls around the thighs and an adorable double chin. I can't wait until Olivia starts chunking up. Nathan also looks very male with defined eyebrows and expressive eyes, whereas Olivia has more petite, feminine features. Check out the photos and see for yourself. Getting out of the house and spending time with another new mother, who is also a good friend, was a real treat for me. I am realizing that getting out of the house and doing things distracts me from the effects of little sleep. We were also able to compare notes on all of those things new parents face.
