One baby is a girl, the other a boy; they were both photographed in a foreign country where Dutch was/is spoken. Both were pudgy babies who grew into stick thin children. One is still skinny and trying to gain weight, the other ...
I had never noticed before how very similar they were as babies ... no wonder they clash occasionally now that they are both adults!
{ And no wonder No.2 Son reckons No.1 Son is turning into his Mother Mark II }

Baby photos across the years are brilliant for comparisons.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos and a lovely way to tell a story.
ReplyDeleteHow funny! It could be two pictures of the same baby...I wonder will the same features come out in the next generation too - we were just saying yesterday how Little E looks very very like his Mum at the same age.
ReplyDeleteI have photos of me as a baby and child that my daughter is convinced are of her and wants to know where I am hiding the toys/clothes as she can't find them! Lovely pics Jemma x
ReplyDeleteAdorable photos! and the resemblance is amazing, right down to the curve of their mouths.
ReplyDeleteTruly remarkable likeness and how important that you have recorded who is who. In years to come, someone will be very grateful that you have pointed it out!
ReplyDeleteThey ARE alike, aren't they...I am always amazed at family likenesses when I look back on photographs!

ReplyDeleteWhat lovely photos! There is certainly a distinct similarity there, even if they don't look identical now.
ReplyDeletemy friend's children look exactly like their parents in their baby pictures,

Its funny how you don't always notice such similarities at the time. My oldest is a mini me - in looks and nature.
ReplyDeleteGosh, so very alike!
ReplyDeleteSo very similar.
ReplyDeleteawww lovely photos - they are very much alike.
ReplyDeletewhat a cute baby you were! So alike great pics xxx
ReplyDeleteOh - this makes me want to go and dig out photos of my parents as tinies now! I don't think there are many but I need to check!
ReplyDeleteyou're so lucky to have those photos!
ReplyDeleteAw, so cute, and yes, so very alike! Thanks for sharing! X
ReplyDeleteWow, so very alike! TFS your story.
ReplyDeleteCheers from France
They are adorable!
ReplyDeleteSO cute! I thought they were photos of the same baby until I read your story. :o)
ReplyDeleteWow, it's like two pictures of the same baby!
ReplyDeleteSuch cuteness!!! x
ReplyDeleteI had to look twice - a striking resemblance!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely very similar! Mine were very similar too but then they are both boys.
ReplyDeleteBoth very cute
ReplyDeleteWhat cute baby pictures - makes me think of my sister & I - we can't figure out who's who in the baby pictures.
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of this story. Proof that all you need is the memory and a couple of well chosen words. Perfect :)
ReplyDeleteWhat precious photos & insightful similarities!
ReplyDeleteWhat a resemblance! My MIL has a photo of my husband in a school play and my son was asking why he couldn't remember being in it!
ReplyDeleteLove those eyes in baby faces and the glimpse of baby toes :swoon:
ReplyDeleteSuch fun to see the resemblance.
My goodness, they do resemble each other remarkably! Great little story ...
ReplyDeleteGreat resemblance - and he still looks like you now, eh!
ReplyDeleteI have a photo of James, aged around 2, jumping around after a balloon. From the angle it was taken, he looks just like me at the same age - amazing! In most of his small-baby pictures, he looks just like his daddy though. Now, there is a resemblance to both, but he just looks like James!
If you hadn't said they were different children I would have sworn they were photos of the same child!! WOW.
