Although Braden and Cade both love and are talented at baseball...the similarities seem to stop there. They actually do play some of the same positions, but Braden is primarily a catcher and Cade's strongest position is pitcher. Cade is very outgoing and will stare you down to the death when he's pitching. Braden is cool and quiet. He does his job, but doesn't even let you know he has to think about it. Cade is rock solid and is now bigger than Braden. Braden is a scrawny as they come :) (I'm not writing anything they don't already know:) I have a sneaking suspision, though, that Braden is going to shoot past him one day soon. I love all my boys and embrace their differences...
Every once in a while, though...I get a glimpse of their similarities. When I uploaded this picture of Cade, I was so confused. I couldn't figure out how this picture of Braden got mixed in with Cade's! It took me a while to figure out that it was, in fact, Cade! He is actually spitting here :) I didn't intentionally take a pic of him spitting, but...welll...that's the way it goes. There's something about how his profile is shaped here that looks the spitting image of Braden...I love it!!
It seems, as the boys have gotten older, they have started to resemble each other more. I don't care either way. They're brothers...and as we all know, that has nothing to do with DNA or how much they look like the other!

Jenn,
These pics are gorgeous!!!! Are you rocking manual already? If so, GREAT job!!!!! I love how God teaches us to embrace the differences and the gifts in each of the children that He gives us to raise!
You are doing an amazing job! I can't wait to see your newest sidekick mixing it up!
Love ya,
Di
Better start labeling those pics, same thing happened to me with my two boys...so different...but so alike! Congrats on your LOA, can't wait to following your journey to Gracie.

Ok you have REALLY got to come take some baseball pics for me. I can't seem to ever get good shots! Secondly, I totally agree. If you lined up all 6 of my boys there is no way that anyone would pick any of them out as brothers. There are a couple that if I had not witnessed them emerging from my loins I would wonder where on earth they came from.
Love these Jennifer! It is awesome to see the different and unique characteristics God gives our children! Unbelievable how they resemble one another in these!
Amen, Sister!
DNA has nothing to do with being family!!
Love the pictures, too!!
Your boys are all so handsome and your girls...well they are beautiful. Such a beautiful family you have:)

I love all of the pics...you are doing a great job. The boys are looking so much more alike in that shot!!!
You are so right! I love celebrating the differences in my boys, but i also love looking at old pictures of them and seeing them look moe alike every day. And i DO have baby pictures that I can only tell who they are by the backgrounds :-)
