The differences in the kids

Well I have decided to do this post again now that Arianna is older and can participate in it better. Personalities amaze me because they develop when the child is so young. Arianna has such a huge personality that started developing when she was just little. Here is my first post about it. I hope to be able to add on some now that the children are all a little older.

Makenzi Anne: was so quiet and content from the second she was born. I will never forget when she born and they laid her on my stomach, she never cried but her little eyes just scanned the room. When they took her from me she screamed bloody murder. Makenzi talks a lot but she isn't loud, she loves to read, write, draw, color, and do crafts. Makenzi has some anxiety issues that she has to really work through especially when they flare up but overall she is easy going. She is a child that will use her words to express her feelings. She isn't one to hit, push or be mean in general. She is very sensitive to what others say about her family and friends. She is so easy to discipline because is so easy to reason with.

Braxton Charles: is a child that is completely opposite of his sister. Braxton was never very content when he was a baby. I remember when he was born he started crying before he was fully born and the midwife laughed that they rarely see that, he must have been mad to leave the warmth. Well Braxton was mad from that day forward until he learned to crawl at 9 months of age. He is loud all the time, he never sits still. He always has a plan in action whether that is a good or bad plan. He is always thinking and trying to figure stuff out. He is a major story teller. Stories that you can tell are totally made up but he has an amazing imagination, right now stories are okay. Braxton loves to play jokes and be teased. That is his favorite thing ever. He teases everybody. He loves tractors, trucks and getting dirty. He is extremely hard to discipline because he is stubborn. We always joked that he was made from a different mold...then came the baby. Braxton loves school but could care less about learning his letters, numbers, etc. It just isn't his thing.

Arianna Mary: well this little girl a different make. We joke that God needs to send us the manual because we don't know what to do with her. Arianna was so quiet and easy going when she was little, up until she could walk. She got her legs under her and she totally changed. Arianna grew a voice box at this time as well. She became extremely loud and mouthy. She screams as she runs through the house, you say something to her and she will turn around and sass back. Arianna is extremely stubborn and hard to discipline. She is very emotional as well. If she is in the wrong mood and look at her she breaks out in big ole alligator tears and will sob for an hour because of it. Arianna is 23 months old now and has a 5 mile long list of words she can say but she refuses to use them...she would rather just screech at us. Ahna thinks she rules the house. She is very quick to start kicking, hitting, pushing, and biting others when she wants something and they have it. She will stand up for herself though unlike Makenzi who will let everybody run right over her. Braxton was also quick to hit but not as bad as Arianna.

I love to see the kids personality to develop over time. How they are different in so many ways yet similar in many ways as well. Arianna and Braxton are the most similar to each other, and Arianna and Makenzi are so different from each other.
