The Two of Us

The first photo below is me when I was 16 months old. The second one is obviously Audrey today-- also 16 months old.

I have this picture of myself in Audrey's room and I was so excited when we found the dress (who knows where the bonnet is!). I've always liked this picture of me as a baby because I still had red hair at this point. By the time I was 3 it had changed to white blond. As I grew older, it continued to darken to the light brownish red it is today.
It was so much fun to watch Audrey run around in the same dress that I wore 30 years ago! It reaches to her knees and billows around her when she walks. I was apparently a HUGE 16 month old because the dress is a size 3t. I must not have grown much in the next year or so because I have a picture of myself in the same dress around the age of three. My hair is white in the picture. I plan to go home next week so I'll steal it and post a copy of it for comparison next week! :)

Cuties!! You know, the dress looks a little big on you, so maybe your mom just bought it large on purpose?

Sweet! You should frame these side by side and give them to your parents! I wished I had some outfits of my husband that Mason could have worn!

I love your new blog site and the pictures of you and Audrey are amazing. What a joy to have a picture of Audrey in the same dress that you once wore.

On another note, I love my scarf I made with mom. Wish I could be there to teach you but visit www.verenaknitting.com for her video instructions and enjoy knitting!!!
