How To Tell The Twins Apart

I finally made a video that I have been wanting to make for awhile. I often get asked from others on how we tell the twins apart. There are a couple of things we look for. One is that Quinn's head has always been a rounder shape while Rylee's is more narrow. This could be from their positioning inside the womb and will most likely look more and more alike as they get bigger. When newborns Quinn was also more tan than Rylee which was also helpful however they're the same shade now. I also try to dress them in certain colors but we're not perfect with that so we aren't 100% consistent which we find can get really confusing when looking back at pictures that we aren't sure of. For the most part though Rylee is dressed in pink and Quinn is in white. If they are matching that day then we try to put a lighter color headband on Quinn and a darker shade on Rylee. This first started when Quinn was tanner than Rylee and looked really good in white so that kind of stuck. When all else fails there's a for sure sign on how to tell the twins apart. God must have known we would need the added reassurance on who was who so Rylee was born with a skin tag on her right ear. It will be removed around the age of two so everyone has until then to really figure it out. I can confidently say that now at almost three months I can look at them and know who is who without having to turn their heads to get a good look at their ears. 😁
