Madeleine has never shown much of a preference for one hand or the other. She is still just as likely to color with her left hand as she is to color with her right. We always encourage her to use her right hand but she is pretty indifferent.
Miriam on the other hand, is completely right handed. Even at 1 she has a distinct preference. Miriam loves to color with Madeleine but she always uses her right hand. If she happens to grab a crayon with her left hand, she quickly switches to her right. The really cute thing is that she also holds her crayon the correct way--unlike Madeleine at this age, Miriam never just grasps it in her fist. Miriam always holds it correctly with her thumb, index finger, and middle finger. It is so cute to see such a little baby holding a crayon the right way.
