Who's Baby Is This???

As I get to know this little guy more and more, it's amazing to me how the gene pool works. We are having a hard time deciding whether this baby is a Jacobs baby or an Evans baby. He definitely looks a lot like Jacobs, but every once in a while he makes these faces that scream Evans. For example, Ryan has been a thumb-sucker for a while, but has lately developed a preference for his first two fingers instead. When I looked at this picture, I couldn't believe how much he looked like my little sister, Amy! I think it's because he is sucking his fingers just like she did as a little girl, but he is also a tiny little thing, just like she has been her whole life. I started feeding him cereal this morning - he wasn't quite sure about it, but smiled through it until the last few bites when he started gagging in a very drama-queen like fashion. When I looked at this picture, I was amazed at how much he looked like James as a baby.
Now, James and my sister, Amy, look NOTHING alike. So, how can the same baby look so much like two very different people???

Ryan is so darn cute!!! I love all of the pictures of him and Tyler! I've always wondered about genetics, also, and trying to figure out who the kids look like. It's pretty interesting!! ;0) I'm glad you guys are doing well. We sure miss you guys!

while he is cute when he looks like a jacobs, I think he is cutest when he looks like me. :) (Mainly because my kids NEVER look like me....) Lis, he is darling all the time. I can't believe how big Tyler is getting. We can't wait to see you soon. Amy
