Although they are each unique, there is no doubt these boys are brothers. Grandma bought them matching outfits in different sizes for their "twins" look.
Today they each got their RSV shots from the home healthcare nurse so they were a little sore but have slept well. I am still up most of the night with Joseph and nap during the morning and evening. Matthew takes care of Benjamin at night who still needs a 3 a.m. feeding.
Joseph weighed 5 lbs. 6 oz. today and Benjamin was 10 lbs. 3 oz. S it looks like Joseph is trying to close the 50% gap in their sizes! Joseph is now roughly the size Benjamin was when he came home from the NICU.
We are starting to see more of their personalities. Joseph seems to have a high level of emotional IQ and is acutely aware of those around him, and is especially sensitive to his brother's cries. Benjamin is very physical and wants to be moving all the time. Both boys adore their dad and seem to vie for his attentions. He is the one they are focused on in the photo.
