Like Mother, Like Daughter


There are some things you just cannot deny.

If you looka lika yo mama, then you looka lika yo mama. Period.

mutti cropped like mother

And hey, that’s kind of cool though, right? Neat to see those genes expressed in such similar fashion in us both.

Of course, I found her pregnancy weight chart in my baby book a couple years ago, and I found out that the bitch weighed less at her highest pregnancy weight than I did before I got pregnant.

AND THAT IS JUST NOT FAIR, GENES, OK?

    Wow, that is totally crazy. I have a funny thing with this – I think I look just like my dad but lots of people insist I look like my mom and I just don’t see it. I think I probably BEHAVE like her and maybe even do things like laugh or clear my throat the same, but I don’t think I look alike.

    However, I recently had a weird moment where I put a new profile pic on facebook and the next time I logged in I was like, “Why is my mom’s picture on my profile?” It was bizarre.

    I swear I thought that was two pictures of you until I read the post and then I looked at your mom more closely.

    I used to use those thick yarn ribbons on my ponytails, too!

    That resemblance is truly amazing — what a lucky gal you are.

    So is she as tall as you? Because comparing weight doesn’t make sense if she’s 4′2″.

    Dammit, I can’t make my typical “Yo mama’s hot!” joke without sounding like I’m hitting on you.

    Holy COW! You look just like yo mama. You are both lovely!

    Oh and my mother is a skinny little thing who had FOUR kids and could still smoke a bikini in her 30s back in the day.

    SOB.

    That’s eerie. I guess at least you’ll know how you’ll age huh? I seem to be a perfect blend of both sides and I’m pulling for aging like my Dad’s side where they look younger than they are vs my mom’s where they look older.

    That’s incredible! Wow! I think it’s so neat when there is such a strong family resemblance. I hang really old pictures of ancestors on my walls at home partly for that reason. Just to find bits of myself and my kids and my husband in our ancestors.

    You look almost the same:) But from my experience to have good genes means to eat a little less:)

    Wow! Awesome genes,there. If it makes you feel better, my mother only gained 12 pounds during her pregnancy with me. She too weighed less when she gave birth than I did before I got pregnant. So wrong.

    She did well on her mid-terms. Check this out
    Since she was young she’s said she wanted to be in forensics or in that field.
    She met the District Attorney at the pub w/her father.
    He picked her up and she went to court. All the prosocuters were so impressed with her, asking the right questionsetc. She was offered a summer internship at the Van Nuys court house!!!
    He told her they have about 1600 peeps in law school who apply and they turn down. She doesn’t have this back ground, but they want her.
    I’m so so proud of her. She’s finding her way!!
