We totally had that same furniture when I was growing up.

Love the picture. You both are too cute.

My reaction was pretty much the same as all of yours: WOW, my kid looks like me! On a day-to-day basis I don’t see that much of me in her, I see more of Troy and my brother. But when I look at old photos of myself, I definitely see that Annalie looks a lot like me.

Man, I was a tomboy growing up. Does that mean if I have a daughter she’s going to be playing football?

It never struck me how much she looks like you until I saw that picture. I thought it was Annalie at first until I read the caption.

That picture is SOOOO awesome! LOL…it is incredible how much you and Annalie look alike. I bet Annalie’s reaction to the photo was just as adorable :-)

I wish it were acceptable for adults to wear plastic barrettes.

Hahaha! That’s so awesome.
Now you need to make a scrapbook page – and I know some people freak out at the word “scrapbook” so let me specify what I mean by that: take a white piece of cardstock (or colored if you want) and some photo corners or “splits” (which is like doublesided tape squares, but acid free), and a copy of this photo and the one(s) from the other day, and put them next to each other on the paper, and then write the story underneath. (Or print what you have on the blog entries and then adhere the photos.) And you’re done. Well, put it in an album. Or, you can use a regular photo album and just include a 4×6 piece of paper in one of the slots with the story written on it. See, you’ve already done it, just having a hard copy would be nice, in case of crashes or power outages or EMPs or whatever. I’m not paranoid at all. Or bossy. ;)

Oh, Bethany! That is priceless!

When I was little, I called my pacifier my “bapper.” Everyone makes fun of me for it (and has all my life, I swear) so I didn’t call it a “bapper” for my daughter, it was simpy a pacifier. One day, we’re sitting in the front room and she’s wandering around looking for her “bapper.” All on her own.

Funny the similarities in actions – let alone looks (my goodness, Annalie DOES look just like you!) – from parent to child.
