I've been wanting to do a post for awhile about how much I do and do not look like my siblings. I've compared Facebook profile pictures and have come to the conclusion that I look most like my brother. My two sisters look like each other. And being the only fair-skinned, redhead in the entire family I always felt like the odd sibling out. So, here are our pics--you be the judge.
ME (#3 of 4 kids)
Justin (#2 of 4)
Jess (#1 of 4)
Janey (#4 of 4)Also on the topic of DNA, I thought it would be fun to do comparisons of my kids. My two boys have looked so much alike since the day they were born. When my second son was born I had a "Deja Baby" moment because he looked EXACTLY like my first. They still look so much alike. But often when I look at Ruby I see glimpses of the same babies I've had before. So here's an age-to-age comparison. Each of the kids at 8 mos. They definitely look related!
It is a good thing Gavin has a nub, or I wouldn't be able to tell whose baby pics are whose. And Ruby has turned out to be my chubbiest baby ever (you know, after the initial super tiny, starvation phase)! DNA is such a funny thing. With my kids, you can see me or Mike in them depending on which one of us is holding them. I have a little of each of my parents, too. And while I don't look as much like my sisters--we all have the exact same voice and laugh!

All of your babies have the same beautiful blue eyes! And I never noticed how much you look like Justin. Justin is a very pretty guy. :)
I'm the same way with the girls' pictures. Good thing Baby has way more hair or I'd be lost.
Your kids look so much alike!! I think they resemble you. What a bunch of cuties. I look nothing like my siblings, we're all different shapes, sizes and colors. I'd say you resemble your brother the most but you got the best hair color for sure!
Hey, I'm the only redhead in my family too (and the shortest) out of 7. I've always felt a little like the odd ball out as well. You kids do all look a lot alike!
