Back from the long hiatus…

And finally introducing Maggie! (Though I doubt there are many people who read this blog who haven’t found out about her already.)

She’s a month old today. We’re having a great time–she is a very sweet, easy baby. She is well loved by her big brother (not to mention everybody else who meets her). I have been trying to figure out who she looks like and how much she looked like Thomas when he was a new baby, so I thought it would fun to do some side-by side comparisons.

Here are the two of them (Maggie is first in each set) on their birthdays.

Here they are when they’re about 1.5 weeks old:

And here are shots when they’re both two weeks old.

So, what do you think? Aside from the obvious difference in amount of hair, do you think they look alike? I’m leaning towards no, but I’m not good at discerning resemblances. And here’s the even bigger question: Who does Maggie look like? Me? Will? One of her grandparents? Any ideas? At some moments I think she looks like my dad, but like I said, I’m no good at this.

We do have photos from the last few weeks, but they’re not uploaded to my computer yet. I’ll post them when I’ve got them.
