The Darowskis Replicate Themselves

As new parents, it's nice to know that some of our traits are being passed down to our little girl. At this point, we've only discovered a few physical traits. Time will tell what personality traits emerge that resemble her mom or dad.

One trait that was passed on from Joe was evident in the 20 week ultrasound. I looked at the picture of her foot and said, "Why is the gap between her big toe and the next one so freakishly large?"


Joe then said, "What's freakish about it? Look at my toes." And then I knew what had happened. You will understand as well as you see the pictures below.


Earlier, Joe made mention of Lizzie's hair and the many terms used to describe its fro-like nature. Lest we think only Joe is capable of passing on quirky physical traits, take a look at the following side by side shots of Lizzie and me. I put Lizzie in the same outfit that I was wearing when I was taken home from the hospital.


However, there is some evidence that Joe had a hand in giving Lizzie fluffy hair.

Isn't it funny how the first physical traits we notice in our children are usually the ones we wished we didn't pass on? When Adrianna was first born a nurse remarked on her second and third toes being connected at the bottom...which just happens to come from me :) I had not realized it was that uncommon or noticeable..hehe.
