Belly Time

You can do it Zevon!


Even at just two weeks old, we are seeing major differences between Guthrie and Zevon. Zevon is more prone to spitting up like Evangeline was as a baby. Guthrie seems to get worked up more easily than his brother. They take turns being the fussy one overnight, so that is a wash. All in all Zevon at this point is the more laid back twin. He takes all sorts of annoyances in stride.

Guthrie is not a fan of belly time


The best example of the difference between their temperaments was last week when they each had to get a heel stick. Guthrie started screaming before the nurse even touched him. He screamed for a solid ten minutes until the nurse left the room and I could finally calm him. Zevon on the other hand felt the poke that started blood flowing from his heel, grimaced a bit, and gave me a look that said, "I'm not a fan of that." He was quiet for the entire time the nurse was taking blood. I know we are working with a small sample size, but it is interesting to imagine how our boys will be as they grow.

So you're saying that Guthrie's living up to his name, huh? Keep it up, kiddo! :)
