QOTD 10/28

Which side of your family do you think you look like, your mom's or dad's? What about DH?

Re: QOTD 10/28

  • I look like my mom's side, I look very much like her in particular.  But I do favor my dad's one sister to the point everyone things I'm one of her kids/grandkids.  Since they don't see me much it's a guessing game on who I belong too, and I look nothing like my dad. 

    H looks like his mama.  A LOT.  I never met his dad since he passed away before we meant, but he doesn't look much like him.  From what I hear, he acts like him though.

  • I don't look like either of my parents. I do have one cousin who I look a lot like on my mom's side though. And you can tell by looking at my sister and I that we are sisters.

    H looks a lot like his dad. He doesn't look like any of his siblings, because none of them are full blood siblings. He has 4 half siblings from his dad and 2 from his mom.

  • I look just like my mother/my mothers side. DH is an exact young version of his father.
  • It is mom in every way possible for both sides.
    My sisters and I all have the same eye structure (colors, brow shape) as our mom. It has gotten to a point of creepiness, but that's a whole other story.
    It is quite obvious who got whose DNA when looking at my husband's family. He looks like his mom and even has the same sounding laugh as his mom's side of the family. His brother, however, takes after his dad's side.

  • In some picture I think holy crap I look like my mom and in others I think I look like my dad.  The older that I get, the more I look like a blonde version of my mother.

    DH looks like his dad's side of the family for sure. 

  • I am pretty much a clone of my maternal grandmother. Looking at pictures of her as a young woman is absolutely eerie! So yeah, definitely all mom's DNA there.

    H is more of an even split. He gets his height and his build from his mother's side of the family, but his facial structure and his voice are more like his dad. H is also a fraternal twin, and his twin brother looks a lot more like their mother than H does. Genetics are neat. :)

  • I look like my mom. Actually all of my siblings look like my mom.

    DH is actually a pretty good mix of both of his parents.

  • People tell me that I look like my dad, but what they really mean is I don't look anything like my mom, haha.  My mom and two sisters all look super similar and since I don't look like them, people say that I look like my dad.  but I don't see it.  My mom and my sisters have dark brown hair and brown eyes while my dad and I have light brown hair and hazel eyes.  But, other than that I wouldn't say I necessarily look like him.

    H looks like both of his parents actually.  I can definitely see both sides of his family in him.

  • I'm pretty much split down the middle and look like both my parents.  I look at pictures of my mom as a baby and me as a baby and we look so much alike.  Same thing when I look at pictures of my dads mom when she was younger.

    H looks a lot like his mom.  His dad is much older and I haven't seen any pictures of him when he was younger, so it's hard to tell if H looks like his dad or not.

  • I look a lot like my mom.  We work in the same school district and now that I have a different last name, people are always like, "We've met before." And I'm like, "Nope, you know my mom."  They're always so shocked at how much we look alike.  I don't see the resemblance as much as others do.  I know my brother and I look alike.  My dad is a lone wolf.

    H looks like his dad now but when he was a child, he looked like his mother.  His sisters look exactly like MIL.

    I have my dad's facial features but that's about it. Everyone else has dark hair, darker skin and dark eyes. I'm blonde and have green eyes.

     

    H is a nice mixture of both his parents.

  • I look a lot like my mom. She thinks I look like my dad, but I definitely favor her. I got my dad's personality and body type, but that's about it. 

    H doesn't really look like either of his parents. He's got bits and pieces of each, but I can't place them all!

  • I look like my mom. So much so that at her memorial everyone kept saying her graduation picture we used in the programs was a picture of me. I have always been told I look like my mom and if you look at pictures at the same age it's actually hard to tell whether it's my mom or me in the picture.
