    Ethan is the older twin and he feeds Joshua all the time. I think it's so precious! He also gives him sips from his straw cup. Do your twins do this? Yesterday at a music class I take them too Ethan was feeding Josh some cookies that the teacher gives out at the end. It was so cool to see them just off in their own little world sharing a snack not knowing that everyone in the class was watching them and melting at how cute it was!

    mine do that all the time too. Rachel the second born feeds Alexis more often than A feeds R. But usually A is grabbing R's food and taste testing it -- is it the same as hers, is it safe for R to eat, is it poisoned etc. who knows what's going thru A's mind. R just has a generous heart and if you stare at her eating for too long at the time you will end up with a bite of your own.

    Yes, mine feed each other. I think they pretty much take turns doing it (it is not one just feeding the other). It is sooooo cute!

    Yes, they do! They will give each other food and sips from their cup. I think it's adorable! I can give one of them two crackers and they will automatically give one to their brother. If I just give them one cracker, they'll point and say "brother" because they want to be sure I don't forget the other boy :D Of course, they are generous to a fault with their food -- offering bites to DH & I and even to complete strangers at restaurants. I guess they are pretty confident that there is always more food available.

    My girls also feed each other. When one of them wants a snack, she always gets an extra one and gives it to her sister. Sweet!

    my boys will once in awhile. Ethan surprised me by giving Hunter a bite of banana once because they love bananas and he has nnever shared anything with Hunter. He usually takes everything from him. Ethan had finished his meal first one day and I had taken him down from the table. He went over to Hunter and Hunter fed him peas he had left on his plate. If I tell Hunter to give something to Ethan he will but otherwise its he must have some in both hands. He took a bite out of half the banana in one hand and when told to give some to Ethan he gave Ethan the one he had already taken a bite out of.
