A Perfect Mix!
People always have an opinion when it comes to who a baby or child looks like. I always think it is humorous how emphatic people are . . . She looks JUST like her daddy!, or . . . She's you made over!!! I have been heard making these bold statements as well (concerning other people's children). Our biological offspring are, however, a mix of two sets of genes; and, it is amazing how a child can somehow resemble two parents, who look nothing alike. While a child may look like a "spitting image" of one parent (like my nephew Philip, and his father before him, and his father before him!), there is always a trace of the other parent . . . maybe in the eyes, or a certain expression. Hannah is an enigma! She seems to have inherited a mixed bag of genes. She does not look exactly like either one of us. But, I'll let you decide! I have posted some pictures of Hannah next to our old photos.
Lori around 6-9 months. Hannah 17 months.
Lori. . . . and . . . . Hannah (same hairdo !)

Jonathan. . . . and . . . . Hannah around the same age.
Similar expressions!
This is one of my favorite pictures . . . Jonathan pouting!!! I get this exact expression from Hannah. I've never captured it though.

What a cute idea! Yes, Philip appears to be an exact duplicate of his daddy, but as you said there are my genes in that boy too! I see glimpses of myself sometime so maybe I'll try to post photos of Matthew and I at young ages to compare with Philip now. Love this idea!
The back of that picture says 6 months, but I thought I looked a little older.
Cute pictures! I see both of you in her, but I think I see a lot more of you. I can't wait to see how our little one will resemble us!
Somebody throw me a bone here! I still have my only vote!!! I am now officially starting the vote for Jonathan campaign!
Alright . . . who voted for Jonathan??? Fess up!!!
I didn't vote for Jonathan, but in both of the pictures I can see how she favors him. I think the shape of her eyes is alot like his. Mix or not, she's just perfectly adorable!!
