Everyone says DD looks like me. Our newborn baby pictures looked almost exactly alike. We were both born w/ red hair which lightened into a strawberry blonde.
However, now, as a teenager, she's taller than I am & has a bigger build than I did at the same age - I was always very petite. And it's not that she's all that tall - she's about 5'5' but I'm just 5'2" on a good day. I think, as she's gotten older, she's started to look a little more like the girls on DH's side of the family.
Everyone also says older DS looks like DH.
However, when looking at our 3 kids, all 3 are similar in looks - in fact, it's hard to sometimes tell who's who when looking at baby pics.
Older DS is only 18 months younger than DD, & they're often asked if they're twins.
And all 3 are a good combination of me & DH. We've had many people tell us, "You can't deny that they're yours!"
DH has greenish-blue eyes w/ brown/blond hair that darkened into light brown as he got older. I have blue eyes w/ blonde hair. As kids & teenagers, we were always both thin (even skinny), but DH grew taller while I stayed short. LOL!
So I think our similar coloring & builds made it easier for our kids to be a combination of both of us while still looking a lot alike, if that makes sense. We all have light colored hair & blue eyes.
DD tans though like DH, while the boys burn like I do.
