okay, my son is only 2 weeks older than Tessa and he looks 3 times her size in this photo. I have prepared a list of reasons to explain that.

1. he is bigger. he has about 3 lbs and 4 inches on her.


2. his head is a lot bigger


3. he never scrunches up and Tessa always scrunches (seriously Raphie's back doesn't curl well at all and he hates having his legs bent)


4. he wears cloth diapers. this makes his bum bigger than the average baby bum, and fills out his clothes so he lookes bigger everywhere, even though he has really skinny legs, torso and arms.

But yes, my son is a giant and will totally win in all the fights he and Tessa will have over the years. Unless she learns to fight dirty like her dad...

You know he really does look like a monkey. I think he must love them.... sigh.
Finally, someone who understands me.

No way - He has mighty tree trunk legs, a barrel chest and big guns just like his old man!

And for you Rishi, yes, we will make sure he loves monkies...for a price...I'd say 2 nights of babysitting a week should promote a good level of monkey-centric brainwashing.

You are right, he really does look like a monkey in this photo.

Not sure he understands you though, that's pushing it.

a) Both bambinos look adorable.
b) do not think for a moment that Raphles will win any fights with Tessa. Girls have evil tear and crying power. It is very hard for males to resist this.
c) no one understands Riishi.
