Mix Up

I get asked all the time if the girls are identical or fraternal.  To me it's very obvious that they are fraternal.  The obvious differences are Aria's dark hair, and she's darker complected.  But their faces are very different to me as well.

So the other day Shane and I had come home with Aria and Siena after being out running some errands.  We left the girls in their car seats in the kitchen and I walked into the other room to put some things down.  All of the sudden one of the girls started crying.  I looked over and saw that it was Aria.  As I walked over to get her out of her car seat I realized I had just mixed up my girls for the first time...it was actually Siena crying.  I had only looked at their profiles from across the room, but I still couldn't believe I had just mixed them up.

So it got me thinking if they look more alike than I realize.  I think there are times that they do look alike and when I look at pictures when they have a hat or headband on, they do look similar.

Today they are wearing cute little matching hats with their outfits so I decided to take some pictures and I took some of their profiles to see if they looked alike.  So take a look yourself, look at the first one only and decide if it's Siena or Aria and then scroll down to the other one.
 

They aren't the greatest pictures because my camera battery died and I'm waiting for a new one to arrive in the mail.

To me when I look at both pictures at the same time it's very obvious but when I look at just the first picture it's a little harder to tell.  In fact I showed this first picture to Shane and asked who it was and he got it wrong.  They definitely are not identical but I think they'll pass as sisters.

So...who's who?
