mine

okay, is he not a total combo of my bro and my
husband in this picture? sheesh


The day he was born he looked like my brother. Then slowly, more and more like me. I was so proud. My son looked like me. My features were his features. Slowly, as he gets older, I see less of me in him, and more and more his dad. And then I come across these expressions he makes, and there I am again.


Ellie has always said we have the same chin. We do.
And the same expressions. And I love it.
And I'm in love with his Converse.
If I could, I would buy him a pair for every day of the week.

Oh Lorie, he definitely still has you in him. I totally see it. I can see Scottie in him as well. Just a perfect blend which is usually pretty rare. No matter who he looks more like, he is one adorable and very handsome little guy. :)

Super cute. It is amazing how he just gets cuter and cuter and cuter with each new picture you post. So, where did you get the converse? Those are absolutely adorable!! Our little guy is going to be walking soon and I'd love to get him some converse, too. We bought him some sandals, which he promptly kicks off as soon as we get them on. But, I think he will be less likely to do that when he starts walking. Thanks for all the great, fun, interesting blogs. Love the pics!

I just love the picture of you and him in the grass, it is so sweet. He kind of looks like he is thinking about biting your nose! :)
