********************************
So, after observing Lily and Elena over the last couple of days, I've decided that my kids are more different. :)
Evidence #1: Lily does not sit up like a normal baby.
Normal baby sitting up (baby Elena at 6-7 months old):
Lily sitting up (6.5 months old):
She always starts from laying down and then leans on one hand and hip. The reason it's so weird: she can sit up normally. She just won't. Evidence #2: Lily does not crawl like a normal baby.

Lily started to crawl normally - on all fours, moving legs and then hands. But, then she decided that this version was better:
She can really book it across the room.
Evidence #3: Elena is....well... see for yourself. :)
Elena declared that Eric's tape measure was her guitar. Then she dressed herself up and started walking around the house performing.

Please take note of the strumming hand and the awesome snow boots. (The things that are beautiful to little kids!)


Again, note the strumming hand and the climax at the end of the song. :)

Cute... Lily is crawling just like her Uncle Dallin did. Where on earth did Elena pick up the guitar.That is just too cute.
"The 'S' is for 'sucks'!"
Haha, Lily is too cute! And Elena's "ballet" was the best I've ever seen. Was she singing anything in particular?
Loved Elena's singing! My girls wanted to watch it over and over! Macey was crawling like Lily not too long ago. Maybe it runs in the family???? Miss you guys!
thithter: no song in particular - it's an elena special :)
what a couple of cute kids you have!!
HA!
1. thank you for strongbad this lovely afternoon. it's been way too long.
2. i love lily's crawling. it looks like she's gotten even faster lately!
3. i love elena's guitar and ballet. those two things totally go together, you know. she is such a crack up.
thanks for the laughs!
Very cute! I'm still waiting to see another child "crawl" the way Jenny did . . . by laying on her back, arching up, and scooting on her head while pushing with her feet. That girl could get anywhere!
Lily doesn't realize just what FUN things are in store for her, being the younger sibling! But, like GGrampa says, "how special that they will have all of this to look back on when they are older"! How very special!!
Love, Love, Love, Elena's playing & dancing! Wait til Lily is old enough to join in...what a wonderful treat that will be!! Can't wait!
BTW...on that other comment regarding the DI treatment, that should have read "GGrampa" rather than "Grampa"...oops! ;)
i don't know if different is the right word. absolutely adorable? that sounds like the right one to me :) i can't get over that guitar getup. hilarious.
