How could he have been both? We saw Pinocchio in the pilot, and he
was younger than Baelfire and looked very different.

Well, they're certainly trying to make us think that, both within the
show and in the promo for next week, where they put together a couple
of scenes and dialogue to connect the two of them. August definitely
has a problem with his legs. Are they turning back into wood? If you
look at the promo photos for the next episode, you can see that there
may also be a connection to the leg problem he had when he approached
the shoreline with Emma in an earlier episode:

I was wondering if the little dog figurine that August used as a
paperweight was some kind of clue. At least I think it was a dog. It
was hard to see clearly because the room was dark.
When we first saw Pinocchio in the pilot, he was sanding a whale
carving (

to Monstro. I think Dr. Whale looks more like young Pinocchio than
August does, although the hair color is still different.
