The idea of identical twins and their identity has always intrigued me.  Both Alex and Jordan seem to have good grasp of who they are in that whenever you call a boy by name, he will respond appropriately. Jordan will also point to Alex and say, "Ala" (not to be mistaken with Lala, which means Mikayla)  Alex also has a way of pronouncing Jordan but it is difficult to type and not used a ton.  Recently, however, Jordan was looking in the mirror and pointed to his reflection and said, "Ala".  He said it several times and then would turn around to find Alex and would say, "Ala" again and laugh.  Again yesterday while we were outside, Jordan pointed to his reflection in my sunglasses and said, "Ala".  As the  boys gain more words it will be so interesting to watch this development.
