However the other day I managed to take a few of Emmaline. After looking at them, I realized that I FINALLY have a baby who looks like ME. Adrianne reminds me a TON of her daddy's pictures when he was a young boy and I'm CONVINCED that Riley looks like her grandma Linda when she was a little girl, unruly curly hair and all!
But Emmaline, she looks like me when I was a little baby. I wish I had photos of me as a baby so you could see the comparisons, but I'm sure that my mama would vouch for the similarities.
Personality wise, my kiddos are all complete opposites too.
Adrianne has always been a chatty baby. She was a babbler as a baby and it was no surprise that she ended up being an early talker.
Riley was my happy baby. She was always giggling (still is, really) and she has the BEST laugh. I remember when she was a baby, Riley would laugh so long that it seemed like she was laughing until she had used up the very last bit of breath in her little lungs. She's also my little stinker. She's the one who tests the limits and will push your buttons. It's so funny to me how someone so cute can be so mischievous.
But Emmaline is my serious baby. It's hard to get her to laugh. Sometimes it can be hard to get her to even smile! It's not that she's unhappy, she's just serious and very observant. She seems as if she's just taking everything she sees in and analyzing it. Even yesterday at my MOPS meeting the woman watching Emmaline remarked to me how serious Emmaline was. When I picked Emmaline up after the meeting was over, the lady told me how they tried and tired to get Emmaline to smile and laugh to no avail. She was quick to mention that Emmaline didn't fuss or anything, but every time another baby would cry, she said that Emmaline would scowl at them!
I can't wait to watch as my girls get older and see how their personalities will continue to develop. It's funny to me how even though they are all so different, I love them just the same.
