Cheeky Boys

I was looking back at pictures of Gusi when he was 7 and 8 months old to remind myself how big the baby will get in a short time, and I noticed that Gusi had the biggest cheeks you've ever seen on a child. Actually, he still has these incredibly squeezable cheeks. Now the baby is going down the same route. He too is getting quite cheeky as he finishes up his second month. Someone told me that babies who nurse develop their jaw muscles which helps the rest of their facial/cranial development somehow, but the effect is that they tend to have rounded faces with big cheeks. Perhaps it's the nursing, or maybe genetics, but one thing's for sure, both of my boys are quite cheeky.
