Father And Daughter Share Rare Genetic Trait

[@dakotawhittaker5568]

Don’t stress to much about her crawling, my son skipped crawling and went straight to walking and he has some amazing upper body strength. So just let her do whichever one she enjoys more

[@mykaelaanderson3306]

Same

[@brandimoon3365]

Mine too. She went from pulling herself up to running to her dad any chance I told her no (she still does this and will be 9 soon). I second the advice to not stress about it. She'll do it, or won't, when she's ready.

[@faithcody3623]

I never crawled, I rolled everywhere and then just started walking, it’s not unusual for kids to not crawl

[@screamstress7]

[@majormana1]

I skipped crawling ocasionally booty scooted till walked but my preferred method of movement as baby was rolling often between dad and tv. It got reaction so yeah. I learned to climb before walking.

[@jessica-annaturner1186]

I almost died when she held onto the steering wheel then looked over and smiled

[@leanneparker1962]

6:57 right there, that look was just so gorgeous!!

[@datingandgrand7437]

I have the same thing with my eyes. They're both dark brown but my right eye is about 3/4th black. No one in either side of my family shows to have this. Nor sure what it's about. So glad I'm not alone.

[@leanneparker1962]

9:56-10:05 & 10:25 - 10:37 and you can see it very clearly. Both are beautiful .She has her daddy's eyes in more way than one.

[@khushigupta3779]

Lets appreciate jess's efforts to summarise the entire vlog in the description box! Really helpful of u, jess!

[@christina7991]

I've read and been told by my pediatrician that crawling is not even considered a milestone anymore. Some babies just skip it and go straight to walking which is fine. Also some babies learn to crawl backwards before going forward so maybe just give it time. Happy day!😊

[@beetee4865]

My nephew crawled backwards for a month, then crawled forwards for a month, and then walked at 8 months. It's definitely a thing!

[@rebeccaabrams3079]

I crawled backwards before forwards - can confirm that as a 21 year old now this had no affect on my ability to walk

[@aquarose9532]

Jess you are doing a wonderful job as mom....dont worry about tummy time....most if not all babies hate tummy time....all 4 of mine hated it lol.....in time they do figure it out....its like they hate it so much that they just say...."flip it" and start to crawl just so they can get off there tummies, and it is so amazing and truth be told....rewarding even to watch the whole process. Keep putting her on her tummy is short intervals then increase that time a little bit each time....she will figure it out.

[@agaagosz8534]

I was crawling till my second birthday. Now i'm in my 30's and running marathons. Everything is gonna be ok!

[@Nan-59]

Congrats 🎉 on the marathon running!! 🏃 🏃🏼‍♀️

[@AndeePandCompany]

Never saw heterochromia present in 2 different shades of brown! Always see it one blue and one brown or with a splash of brown. So neat! ❤️

[@kayymarie696]

I have a one blue one green with brown spots and my step sister has hazel eyes and ones half green

[@megancooper6718]

Yup, babies all work out how to move in their own way. Scooting, rolling and pushing. Don't stress.

[@maggie1000]

Aw the little driving segment is gonna be so cute to look back on when she actually starts to drive. And it’s so cute when her head was next to Austin’s and she started cheesing like “I’m like my daddy!”

[@amandaaapereira]

As an Early Childhood Educator, trust me when I say... don’t stress about her not crawling! It is so common and nothing to worry about. I had a ton of kids in my classrooms who never bothered to crawl, they showed zero interest! So instead, I enforced walking in a variety of ways and they eventually got there! :)

[@annaholeman7968]

"10 (puts hand on 2) and 2!(puts hand on 10" 😂😂😂 what kind of clock are you thinking of Austin? 😂

[@rachelanderson3662]

I thought that was funny as well!!

[@Nan-59]

I totally missed it!!🤣😂🤣😂😂😂

[@kyleee8]

I had my two boys exactly 11 months apart (1/5/2012 & 12/5/2012) and it was the best experience. My boys are 6&7 now + they are absolute best friends. Wouldn’t trade it for the world. 🖤

[@Ell_Bell05]

6:55 that moment when they both look up at the same time and it’s sooo cute!

[@annagilleland2754]

Yes it would be great to enjoy tummy time, but don't stress! My oldest skipped crawling all together and walked at 10 months. My middle crawled early but then didn't walk til 15 months, and my youngest was a textbook baby and did everything exactly as you would expect. She will do what works for her!

[@michelleross9782]

I could tell that Micah's right eye is lighter in color than her left but couldn't tell if the right eye was hazel, green, or dark green-blue.

[@teeh9427]

Stop worrying so much. She'll develop at her own pace. Enjoy her every minute. They're grown before you know it. She's beautiful!

[@bari2883]

Tracey Hitchens A nurse told me the same. Enjoy because they grow in a minute. I blinked and he turned 18 two wks ago.

[@cass121983]

Micah is one of the cutest and most beautiful babies I have ever seen. Her little face melts my heart.

[@Jjmmom71]

Loving the smiles! I can't believe how much she's grown and changed so much! She has such a wonderful personality and she's so precious 💜 💜 you guys are so blessed. 😉

[@kittenkotz9999]

Heterochromia is definitely a genetic thing! I share this with my cousin. We both have blue eyes with about half of one being brown. It is unique and beautiful. I almost forgot to tell you ...my oldest has one green and one blue.

[@kim1416]

Kitten Kotz, I also have Hetrochromia. Yes, it most definitely is genetic. My paternal great grandmother had it. I have it and one of my first cousins (female) has it. Our left eyes are green with a little brown dot and our right eyes are dark brown. The green can vary from hazel/blue to really really green. So far, we're the only ones who have it. Just waiting to see if it pops up in any of the grandkids. It is beautiful and unique💖💗

[@ismeneedecaste3592]

Οh my God, this video just appeared and made me so happy! You guys have a beautiful daughter, a beautiful family! God bless - so so happy -

[@leagoproductions2367]

I’ve been studying this project in science class, and I’m pretty sure I have an A on the final

[@SarahBear1209]

My oldest didn't crawl until 11 months old, but then walked at 12 months. She'll do things in her own time, mama! 😊

[@ahaas01321]

OMG HER GRIN IN THE THUMBNAIL 😍😍😍😍 I'M MELTING 😍😍

[@kaseyrask3918]

My son was a late crawler and walker. After he started walking he went from walking to running!! She will get the hang of it ;) you and Austin are doing great.

[@rileyshannon5879]

Don’t worry my kids walked and never crawled. You should promote the walking instead by buying things to help them build the muscle in their legs. Love you guys ❤️

[@amandadehart6267]

You can see the difference in here eyes!! She is so stinking cute love to see how much she grown, been watching from the beginning! Ps my son crawled for like a week and then took off walking at almost 11 months

[@genkatqltr737]

Thank you for explaining about the eye colors. I thought I saw bluish or greenish color at times. Then lighter brown and dark brown, occasionally with Austin too. Didn't know if it was a reflection in the camera lens or if something was going wrong with my vision (yikes!). Do any others in Austin's family have this? Kinda neat and rare thing to share with her daddy! 👨‍👧👀

[@AustinAndJess]

Nobody else in the family (that we know of) has this!

[@elizabethenigma]

My oldest daughter hated sitting. The only time she would sit would be when she ate. She also never crawled. The moment she learned how to stand on her own she pretty much started walking. She is 8 now and still has a hard time sitting, she just will not sit still long enough. Lol

[@tabihawley6624]

Oh my gosh! Micah's outfit is so stinkin adorable!! I love it! *My youngest son has that! It's just a triangle on the bottom if his left eye though. I noticed it the day he was born! They actually tested him fir partial blindness at about 3yo. His vision is fine. It's really cool!

[@mackenzieb2218]

someone i knew in junior high/high school had one blue eye and one half blue/half green eye. it's sooo pretty!! can't wait to see her eyes change as she gets older!

[@heavensennamon1938]

My son didn't like tummy time for the first couple minutes and he fussed for a few before he started liking it. And I wouldn't worry about crawling. Babies always meet milestones at different times and every baby is different. Before you know it she'll be running! Such a cute baby and beautiful family!

[@alyssaschweitzer7488]

Sydnee and Micah are like twins!!! It takes time! She will get it!

[@CiCiirishkitty]

My daughter hated being on her belly too. I finally had to break down and get her a walker. She was all smiles after that! LOL! Ended up walking at 9 months old! Her walker was a life saver!

[@terseandtiny1746]

Every kid has their own pace. My little one took off walking at 7 months and it got crazy.

[@KittyKatRiot]

Her smile is so precious! Love your videos!!

[@angieharwood7358]

From a mommy to 9 children, don’t worry to much about tummy time. My children hated it. She’s still so little. I would be really surprised if she skipped crawling. It does happen but even babies who hate tummy time still learn to crawl because their desire to move around and grab things motivates them. Your doing great, don’t stress. She’s the sweetest little girl!

[@AzelaAlbanez]

OMG JESS!!!! Ive been watching your videos since I got pregnant back in April 2018. And I watched you until I gave birth in December. Then I took hiatus! AND OMG YOUR LITTLE ANGEL GOT SO BIG REAL QUICK! She's so beautiful. My son is now 3 months! time is flying!!!!! I remember watching your gender reveal and cried. im so happy for you guys!

[@abiston6704]

I have heterochromia too! ones a light brown and ones dark brown! I know hers will look beautiful

[@tonisilkwood839]

Omg her smile kills me! So freaking cute!!

[@pamthompson3812]

Micah looks so much like Austin. Micah may think...stranger danger...when someone she doesn't know comes up. Good job Mom and Dad😉

[@Serenade2461]

Omg when you said you made a fort 2 years ago to the date, I legit teared up. My heart! You guys are awesome and relationship goals

[@cander8288]

My cousin has one really blue eye and one really brown eye, it's gorgeous, I'm so jealous 😂💖

[@ethelgrog]

What a cute family! Just discovered you. In the general public most people equate hair with gender. I have two boys who had ample hair and were constantly mistaken to be girls. When my second was born, I really wanted another boy (before sonograms) and when I saw his face as he emerged from the birth canal, I crowed "It's a boy!" At which my doctor quiped, "Wrong end.". I agree with the comment that she will be ok with walking first rather than crawling. Does she sit by herself? Don't you think that takes as much core strength as crawling? My first only did the army crawl before he walked ( at nine months) and he has always been a very strong individual with good posture.

[@cynthiaakacyndsmith6539]

Enjoy each and every step of her way. Crawling is good for more than actual physical activity helps keep the mind using the right and left parts of every thing.. including the brain.

[@natbb9]

The momma love she is showing to her daughter is the best... I need to go visit my mom to get some of that. She's a 79 and I'm 41. I love her.

[@teganheifort7896]

My husband has two different colored eyes! One all blue and one green.

[@octastic24]

Micah is just getting cuter and cuter every dang day! She’s so precious I’m a jelly momma! I have two boys and I’m just aching for a girl.

[@soccerqt107]

She looks just like Austin! But I see Jess in her sometimes too lol she’s the cutest!!!!

[@jessb4812]

M'y daughter is 8 months and hates tummy time. She is starting to wanting to walk so dont worry. You are doing great.

[@beetee4865]

I wouldn't stress about crawling--she'll do it when she's ready. My 9 month old niece just recently started crawling but was showing signs she might walk first. As long as Micah's still thriving, that's what's important! Also, her smile is adorable! 😊

[@charishmaramchandani9274]

Micah looked adorable when she was little too. How many months old is she in this video? It was so nice to see her at the steering wheel. Good job, Micah! I did notice the eye color thing in another video too, but I thought I'd imagined it. That is quite a nice trait - you can see the world in different colors! Keep smiling.

[@angelicarivers7225]

That is so cool!! It’s cute that they share the same genetic trait

[@trishaadaway6953]

It's crazy because she DOES look just like her Daddy! However, she looks just like Mommy too! Jess, she was identical to your baby picture at your parents house! Either way... she can't lose... that's for sure. She has great genes from both sides. She is definitely the most beautiful baby ever and that smile... oh my gosh... that smile can brighten even the darkest days! Thank y'all for sharing all the smiles with us. You have the cutest little family and you bring so much joy to others. Jess and Austin, you two are amazing parents! I always look forward to seeing new videos. Please don't ever stop! I'm looking forward to Micah's 1st dance class, 1st day of school, prom, graduation, college, wedding, and then all the little baby Micahs!

[@Akkhon369]

She has a mood eye, my hubby's eyes are mood eyes green, blue,and hazel it's really cool and sometimes they have a good brown tint also so watch out for that it's so beautiful when people's eyes change cause of their moods even if it's a single eye you'll be wowed by it

[@aminakribi3409]

She's so cute, makes me wanna have kids ! Bless you all.

[@FreeSpiritCrafter]

She does look like daddy! She's got a great smile!

[@karenl3662]

It’s hard not to worry about our kiddos hitting their milestones “on time” but she looks great to me! My little guy didn’t even start sitting or army crawling until 10 months old and at 14 months he’s starting to walk more and more independently. Some babies just take a little longer than others and that’s okay 😊

[@AlvaradoProduction90]

Your baby is adorable. She looks just like daddy.

[@joanngeorge2159]

My daughter walked before she crawled! She was very strong!

[@addison_pngtuber4999]

Your baby is so adorable and she has a beautiful smile God bless her. She's so cute

[@CorgiMom007]

The crawling to walking is actually a early child brain development that is a huge step. Our youngest crawled maybe 2 days (seriously) then began to walk.

[@katelyndee1113]

I agree with you about crawling!! Holding her up and having her “walk” and take assisted steps can actually hinder crawling,because most babies would just prefer to walk assisted! She’ll figure out crawling for sure! Every baby in their own time 😊

[@susiessoapstuff1459]

My son rolled where he wanted to go. I gave him a walker, and he got his core strength from there. He walked at 9 months. My daughter crawled everywhere and didn't walk until 11.5 months. Every child develops at their own rate.

[@vermontmom4232]

"She definitely is his daughter!" Was there a doubt? I too loved being pregnant. But only have been once. He is now 12 and having another one now would be like starting all over again. I am almost done...

[@betterwiththeirish]

My daughter rolled not crawled. She rolled where ever she wanted to go lol

[@MyBloodyLips]

Better With The Irish that sounds cute 😭 but scary 😭 if she gets lost when you look away for a second

[@honeyandpeach6007]

My son also used to stare people down at that age haha! I would be so flustered and say, "He is usually very happy!".

[@vermontmom4232]

We all end up with a baby bump after having our little ones... You are beautiful and glad you loved your pregnancy. I did too. I loved being pregnant, not enough to do it again, but felt the best I ever have....

[@inactive.account4472]

I love your videos. You guys are so great and I’m learning so much from you. Thanks for the cart cover plug. Just added it to my amazon baby registry!!

[@rebeccawilliams66]

She’s still young. My daughter didn’t crawl until 11 months and then walked 6 weeks later. She hated tummy time too. But she loved the exersaucer play center. They sit in it and have toys all around to spin and reach for. It kept her entertained and built up her strength. She’s almost 15 now so I’m not sure what they call them now. Micah will do what Micah wants on Micah’s time.

[@lifeinthebfamily5153]

Dont worry too much about the crawling.. my parents said I never crawled or walked.. when I took my first steps .. I ran😅

[@victoriarodriguez991]

I was born with green eyes, changed to brown. They would go back and forth till I was like 10.

[@Okay-xw1yk]

My nephew wouldn’t crawl for a long time, he hated when we tried to teach him, he loves to stand though. But one day he just started crawling. Like many have said, don’t worry about it!

[@marimayn716]

Aww Micah in that cart was super cute !!!.... Sometimes life pours, but just believe things still turn around ❤

[@jaimebh30]

It is cool that they both have the same eye trait. I am excited to see what colors her eyes end up being at one year.

[@annaburtenheim5310]

thats so sweet. me and my dad have the exact same eye color and it just feels amazing to share something so speical. we have a quite unique green color that is in the grey, green, yellow spectrum more then blue. its light, but extremly matt. nearly no "galaxy" pattern as in most green and blue eyed people.

[@livinglife8333]

Her expressive little eyebrow just makes me giggle. 🥰

[@Diefenbaker57]

Thank you for a little A/J/M boost...9:16 ....Micah looks SOOOOOOOOOOO impressed with being moved around so much ..."like, seriously mum and dad?" In a less joking vein -- I'm so glad Jessica is taking "me" time to express herself in a creative way. Whether that's through pole dancing or art. Everybody needs an outlet and cannot be "parent" 24/7/365 -- that way leads to burnout.

[@nicolemh]

My son just stared at people until he was 11 months. Now he loves to smile and wave. Before that he would just awkward stare at people all the time when we were out

[@vivianmartinez5982]

My daughter does the same thing when we are at home she’s smiling and laughing but when out and about she just stares at anyone who comes up to her 😂

[@lifeasamurray]

She is honestly the cutest babe

[@mistryem]

Hi my daughter is 8 months old and only just starting to show an interest in crawling, she hated being on her tummy and was more interested in sitting up. Babies are so different she will get there when she's ready there's no rush

[@gloriapaddock4618]

I could see her eye is the same as Austins. Don’t stress the crawling.🥰🥰🥰

[@catherineellis1200]

Such a beautiful family I truly appreciate and adore❤️

[@kim1416]

Welcome to the Hetrochromia family!! I have it too. My left eye is green with a little brown spot. My right eye is dark brown. The green can vary. Sometimes it's hazel. Sometimes it's a really really bright green or really dark green. It seems to come from the paternal side. My paternal great grandmother had it, I have it and one of my first cousins ( female) has it. The funniest part of it is when someone notices it for the first time, especially someone I've known for a while. We're a huge family, but so far we're the only ones who have it. Just waiting to see if it pops up in any of the grandkids.

[@nicolebefus5661]

All 3 of my kids absolutely hated tummy time! my daughter skipped crawling and went right to walking at 10 months. No worries if they dont crawl. My youngest was my big crawler and he refused to do walking or trying to walk until like 13 months old. He knew he could get where he wanted faster if he crawled instead of learning to walk

[@shilialeejurado699]

Awe!! I want to learn pool! That would be great!💕🥰Holly and jess you 2 are so amazing! I wish I had a friendship as amazing as yours!! Love you guys so much!! And of course miss micah is adorable as ever!!🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@No-wp7yg]

Enjoy your day and can’t wait to see the fort with Micah sitting inside 🥳❤️

[@lynnhamps7183]

She absolutely must be the cutest little baby ever (well, apart from my two grandchildren obviously..lol)..such a sweetheart...as for crawling, please don't worry about it, partly because she'll pick up on your stress but also because it doesn't matter..my eldest never crawled, he shuffled about on his bottom a little then just got up and walked..he is now 40, ex RAF, 6ft 4 inches tall and has a posture to die for....she'll be fine hunny, truly..btw, did I say how beautiful she is? :D

[@ilive4anime.]

My mom said I never crawled, I also hardly ever took naps. Which was way different from my 3 other siblings. Was also reading before talking. Needless to say. Still love reading :D

[@hayleelang4660]

That's so sweet that they have the same eyes

[@hayleelang4660]

I love coming back from the new videos with Paige and watching all the old videos of when Micha is still a baby

[@gracelazaro8910]

My son hated tummy time too. Have you tried having her watch “baby stimulation” on KZbin? It kept my sons attentions day head up for quite some time.

[@jordanneelaine4511]

I taught learning disabled kids for more than 20 years. I know that many kids who do not learn to crawl have learning disabilities and have to learn to crawl at a later age. It's important to do it. You might want to put her on a large exercise ball on her tummy, and interact with her. You could also put her on her knees on the floor and show her how to move her knees in sequence to crawl. She is probably not going to tolerate being left on her tummy to entertain herself.

[@florencecavallaro4599]

i would not worry at all//they both have beautiful eyes//for sure.

[@TheMrKristens]

My oldest hated tummy time. We did an exersaucer bc I would rather have happy emotions than an angry kid. Within a month of him in his exersaucer he started crawling and sitting up on his own without wobbles. (His sitting before the exersaucer was wobbly, but he could sit unassisted.) I did enjoy bringing the exersaucer into the kitchen area with me... He ended up crawling and walking...all within normal limits and he absolutely enjoyed the time he had playing while being upright. Some kiddos just don't enjoy tummy time. As long as you know her feet touch the floor (or you can place a thin prop floor under her) then she will be able to exercise core muscles. My second child loved tummy time...likely bc he saw his older brother on the floor playing. Just do what you feel is best.

[@dawnbarden]

Don't worry about her she will find her way to get around my son and his son both rolled over and over then started to pull themselves around on there tummys before they walked she will get there hun

[@miragilleland2489]

It’s all good, my 10 month old still refuse to crawl.... 😂😂😂

[@theroseofthedead6194]

Omg i never notice but that so freaking awesome!!! Austin better get ready them boys gonna steal mika wi th those beautiful eyes

[@theroseofthedead6194]

Forgot to tell you my little brother is like that a little bit. He have hazle eyes with a little bit of green

[@brokenbabydoll21]

Have you tried putting Micah on her belly, on the boppy, with something in front of her? We used to put my son like that with a pan full of water and rubber ducks. It kept him entertained for quite a while. Also, rotating toys helped. And don't stress about her walking before she crawls... Every little does things their own way. 🙂

[@melindamiller9515]

She is working on her core and neck muscles while sitting. Encourage her to reach up and out while sitting or on her back to work on shoulder strength. It is best to crawl but there are other ways to strengthen those muscles. You can always encourage weight bearing and floor time play after she learns to walk. I am a retired school based occupational therapist and have worked with infants. I would be willing to talk with you to ease you concerns.
