More Comparisons

Kami said something to me the other day about her boys looking similar/different than each other, and then she said I should do a comparison of my boys, and I said, "Dude!  I already have pictures selected and waiting for that!"  It was cool.

Anyway, here are all my boys in the Shirt of Magicalness.  I think of it that way because it is 90% white, yet it continues to come clean again and again.  I've never seen any shirt like it--trust me, boys can ruin white shirts in two seconds flat--but this one always becomes bright white after washing.  Magical I say.

I remember buying it for Jethro 11 years ago when he was one.  Here he is, the cute little dude.  It's the only picture I currently have of him wearing it (and maybe the only one at all, I took a lot fewer pictures back then).


About the time we moved to Switzerland, Talmage was wearing the shirt.  (Thus, it wasn't packed away but came with us, and thus, all the boys have worn it.)  Here are a few pictures of him in it.




And, some of my favorite pictures of these two boys ever, when Orrin was wearing it:

 

And finally, my baby boy wearing it:


(also wearing a mustache, which he was NOT impressed with)




And there you have all my cute boys wearing the cute shirt of magicalness.

Second comparison- passport pictures.  Last Friday we took the older four kids to the embassy (well, actually we took all of them, but only the four older ones had appointments) to get new passports because IT HAS BEEN FIVE YEARS SINCE WE GOT THEIRS.  Isn't that crazy?  It feels like so short a time since we were getting all our stuff together to move here.

Befores and Afters


 








Who has changed the most?  All of them, gosh!  I have to say that Ethne's little pokey-outy buns hairstyle was so cute!  :)

And no comparison, but just thought I'd throw out these two Swiss-born kids passport pictures too-



Okay, now my vote is that Wyatt has changed the most.

The end.

Love this! I do a lot of comparing with my own kids as well. SO fun!

Well, my humble opinion is that none of your boys look alike. Some resemblements but I think Jethro looks like you and Talmage looks like Brett and Orrin looks like Blake and Wyatt the guy looks like Kami and Michael Rasmussen when he was little. And Talmage has looked the same always. the same with Orrin. Great pics - and - I can't believe it has been 5 years!!!!!! Wow! They all look so big now
Love you tons. Miss you.
