For posterity, a comparison:

Posted by & filed under Hazel, Oliver.

I have been going through our family photos in preparation for Hazel’s first birthday in a couple of weeks and I’ve had such a fun time coming across shots of the kids at the same ages. As their Mom I can definitely tell them apart, but some of them take a second glance for even me.

Of course the headband gives this one away. :)

Here’s Oliver at about the same age:

Here they both are at 6 weeks old. Can you tell who’s who?

And at six months old. Of course their clothing colors give them away here too, but it’s fun to see them.

I think Oliver looks a lot like Hazel here:

Okay, that was such a Mommy post. But I get to do that from time to time, don’t I? Especially when I start feeling sentimental looking through photos of my babes as, well, babies.
I just can’t believe we’re not counting down DAYS until she’s one!

    >I was just doing that with the 3 girls I babysit! They're 4, 3 and 1. Their Mom wanted me to make a photo book with pictures of the oldest for her 5th birthday this weekend. I went through piles of their old photos and they look so much alike as babies.

    I had to keep doing a double take especially for the oldest and youngest. The Mom kept all their outfits so a lot of the pictures were of the big girls in the same outfits the baby wears now. It was nuts, and I loved it.

    >wow! that's amazing!
    My two older ones looked very different, so it was easy-peasy to tell them apart. However, Isaac and Olivia look very simlar, except for eye color.
