Can you tell who is who?

Gabe is the top photo, Will the bottom.
I still cant get over how much they look alike, I expected them to look a little alike, but exactly the same? Its like they are identical twins two and a half years apart.
As soon as I can catch a picture of Will smiling I will compare again.

William Reese

William Reese has arrived!
Well, about 6 weeks ago. Needless to say, we've been busy. He was born on April, 23rd at 8:55am. 7 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches. He is wonderful, a little more high maintenance than Gabe was as a baby but just as adorable and cuddly.

I woke up that Saturday morning (the 23rd) at 5:30 am with my first contraction. I had been getting Braxton hicks contractions for weeks so I didn't know if this was the real thing or not because my water hadn't broken. After about 4 more contractions about 3 minuets apart, I woke up Chris and got Gabe ready to go and we were off to the hospital. We were quite nervous about making it to the hospital in time for an epidural because Gabe came so quickly (about 5.5 hours from water break to birth).
We arrived at Plano Presby at about 6:30 am and checked in. My sister arrived about 10 min later prepared to be our photographer for the big event. Then Chris's parents arrived and took Gabe to play while his little brother was preparing to arrive. I got my epidural pretty quickly this time, thankfully!
My doctor came in and broke my water at 8:30 and William arrived 25 minuets later after 1 push. Straight out, no head first then second push for shoulders. Just "pop!" baby! Easypeasy. Just under 3.5 hours of labor. I guess I'm pretty lucky, quick uncomplicated birth. We are very blessed. DSC_2418DSC_5042DSC_5072
