Compare and Contrast

It's something ingrained in all of us to try to determine who a baby looks like.  From the time they enter this world, they are scrutinized as to whether they look like mommy, daddy, a sibling, or another relative.  I, for one, have never been good at picking these things out.  A baby, is a baby, is a baby to me.  Others, however, feel they have some magic powers to decipher exactly what the child will look like 3, 5, 10 years from now.  So I'll let you decide.  Do you think Sawyer and Colin look much alike?  What about Sawyer and I?  Sawyer and Wes?

Colin, at birth.  My apologies for the baby p*rn.






Sawyer, at birth.




Colin, a few days old.


Sawyer, 1 week old.













And since all babies look alike to me, here are some non-hospital pictures a few day later.

  1. I actually thought that Sawyer looked just like Colin in the very first picture you posted of him ... these seal the deal for me. I'm super curious to see if he has the same hair color as Colin down the road ...

    I'm like you though, it's hard for me to ever tell, especially those first 6 months, who they look like ... I am glad it's not just because I don't have kids of my own : )

  3. It's hard for me to tell with babies too. But just like Jen's comment above, I thought the baby was the same one in the first set of pictures until I read the captions. To me, they definitely look like brothers, if not twins, in these photos!

  5. We were looking at Vera's pictures on Facebook a few nights ago, and Shawn thinks Sawyer looks more like Wes. By the way, he's a little jealous of his hair. ;)

  8. I have no idea about my kids and I'm not great with viewing pics to see ... but I'm awesome about telling when they're in person! (Like that helps you!)

  9. I think they do resemble one another! :) And yes, AGD :) I pledged in 02. I wasn't real active afterward though because I had to work alot. Long story...maybe a convo we'll have one day! Are you going to Harry's Wednesday? (brand new baby so I'm guessing no but thought I'd ask!!!)

  10. Our journey has begun!... secretly though =)

    If I’ve left you this message, you’re a follower of my original blog. Though I won’t be revealing who I am just yet – until we’re TO and THROUGH the first trimester! Just getting the word out about our new site – further explanation of all the secrecy and what we’re about on my first post now up. I’d love for you to stop by. Exciting things going on around here!

  15. I love the compare & contrast—they certainly look like brothers! Sawyer looks maybe a tad blonder? I wonder what color hair he'll have!
