When people ask me if the girls are alike, my response is usually, "NO WAY, they are absolute polar opposites!"  They are different in so many ways! 
 
Just a few ways they are different:

1.  Marisa is the cautious one, even at a young age!  She was always worried about getting hurt.  Sabrina could care less about getting hurt.  If you can do it, then she can, too!

2.  Marisa was a clean freak from the start.  By the time she was 18 months, she was using a spoon and made very little messes when eating.  Apparently, that is not the norm.  Sabrina is still trying to figure out how to eat with a spoon and she's now 20 months.  We think she has Alien Hand Syndrome...that somehow her left hand takes over on it's own and feeds herself without her knowing it.  A stretch, I know, but could quite possibly explain why her left hand takes over her feeding.

3.  Marisa was drawn to men from the very beginning.  She was always smiling at men across the room from her in restaurants and stores.  Sabrina is drawn to women.  She's always looking to smile at the grandmas and moms that she can find. 

4.  Marisa was always the cute pudgy, rolly baby.  Sabrina is the petite baby.  Although, they both had big squeezable cheeks.  Marisa was always in the 80th to 90th percentile in height and weight, but Sabrina sits in the 50th to 70th.  Which is amazing, since she eats like there is no tomorrow. 

The list of their differences could go on and on...but, this blog is about their similarities.

These pictures were taken last week.  Unfortunately, Sabrina has figured out that there are buried treasures in her nose.

 

And, here is a picture of Sabrina standing proud with her kleenex.
