Comparison pictures

[sal_amanda]

I thought it would be fun to post some pictures of me as a baby with some pictures of Nora.  Unfortunately, we don't have any baby pictures of John.  His mom brought some when she came after Nora was born, but she refused to let John hang onto them long enough to scan any of them.  I've seen them, though, and I think that Nora does resemble him more then me at times, but she has some random things of mine like eyebrows and lips.  

Here's one of me at 4 1/2 months drowning in my own pudge


And one of Nora at approximately the same age


This one is of Julie and me on my first Christmas, so I would have been just over 7 1/2 months


And a recent one of Nora at almost 7 months


And finally one of me and Julie when I was about a year

1. John's mom is weird for not even letting him scan them!!

2. No doubt -- she looks a lot like you!! Especially that great big smile!!

John's mom is weird for many reasons. I think she was worried that he'd keep them or something so she refused to let him hang onto them when she left, and we just didn't have the time when they were here to scan them. She's a control freak, to say the least. I do wish I had some pictures of him, though, because there are some moments when I really see him in her, too.

I think the similarities really show up in the second set of pictures.

PS- yes I'm up at 3 in the morning, wonder why?

You have a 6 month old so I have no need to wonder. ;)

She looks like you! Zack looks nothing like me - he's all daddy. I see from the floor pic that Nora has what we call the "Matrix Duck", I also found the "Matrix pig" at the dollar store and bought it for Zack.

We got the duck from a garage sale and she loves it so much that we think we need another, but weren't sure where to find one. I'll have to check out the dollar stores.
