Genetics are a funny game of roulette. Sometimes kids look just like their parents, or one in particular, which is kind of gip for the other parent. Then there is the supermodel who had very ordinary looking parents, but got just the right bits from them to become stunning. Of course, sometimes two stunners produce a not so pretty offspring. The sharp features are only hard.
Then there is the kid who you are sure is a ringer for their dad, then you find out they are adopted. It’s really silly and superficial to worry about who a kid looks like.
Which is, of course, why I had to do a vid on this subject.
Ahahaha!! The little sneeze at the end
Like “Mama, I’m allergic to this stupid wig. Cut it out!”
My oldest looks like me and I’ve always been proud of that. I really enjoy hearing it, it’s like I accomplished something amazing. *lol* But she is now fourteen and it annoys her when people tell her how much she looks like her mom.
ha, I bet. they want to be themselves. years from now she will like it.
that wig did reek of perfume. I borrowed it from a friend who had worn it to a party. Poor Rex. He suffers for mom’s comedy.
Totally agree! I hear that about my youngest all the time. It’s new to me because my first looks just like me. I’m not into it! By the way, your little guy looks like you
Oh, I so can relate. My guy has his dad’s coloring and makes the same facial expressions, but I swear he has more of my features! I am not the nanny! I am his mother! Phew, sorry.
And yes, Rex does look like you.
Nice Job Mom! I think he looks plenty like you.
Funny enough when my son was born everyone said he looked like my brother Sam, kind of a gross thing to say and not really something dad wanted to hear. That just meant my family genes were stronger than his–ha. The tables have turned now and my family looks at Charlie (now 15 months) and gives the head shake followed by the comment “I mean i don’t see one ounce of Stremick (that’s my side) in this kid”. And to that my husband holds his head high and smiles like he just found out his sperm is the most superior thing on the planet. Gotta love that testosterone.
But when he grows up to be a rocket scientist that’s also a professional athlete I will smile and let my husband know that it wasn’t his sperm that did it–it was my superior breast milk.
so, so so sweet.
he adores you..
Ha ha. He looks so like his Dad. Especially when he refuses to wear the wig!
Daphne, we are spending the 8 below zero day here today watching Rex videos.
I’m going to see if you have a tab page for him?
WE LOVE him.
I think he looks like you. He has your nose for sure.
He is totally adorable
