Deja vu

When I took a trip recently to visit my family in northern Illinois, my grandmother gave me a photo that was taken in July 1977. It shows my mother, standing in front of our old house, holding 4-month-old me while my late Aunt Ann admires my cuteness.


Coincidentally, my visit was in July, when my own daughter was 4 months old. So I was inspired to recreate the photo with Allison's Aunt Cathy. This photo was taken outside my parents' new home, which is just next door to the old place.

It's amazing to me how much Allison and I look alike as babies! Except that she has a cuter forehead...

More blog entries to come - I've got lots of stories and catching up to do! Meanwhile, if you're itching for more Allison photos check out the link to the right, which will take you to our Flickr photo album.

Cute that you guys looked so much alike. You'll have to figure out where the David genes went.

All dear good? These photos had been frightful! It was on purpose by chance?
