All this time I've thought that Erik looks just like Paul. I saw it at birth, especially when we compared Erik to Paul's baby pictures, identical! I've never felt any quams that my facial traits didn't pass onto him, infact it made sence because I'd seen the Dad's features dominate in my nieces and nephews, so why not my own son have his dad's features.
But lately I've thought Erik reminds me of someone, and looking at some of my baby pictures I realized who, ME!
YOU be the judge, VOTE on who Erik looks most like, his mommy or daddy. May the best parent win! jk

OK-I have to agree, he does look like you in these pictures. He is so cute. But I have to tell you, the other day, I was looking at some pictures as they just cycle through on the side of our computer screen. And I thought subconsciously something like, "Oh, isn't that a cute picture of Paul. Paul was so cute." Then I came more aware of what I was thinking and realized it was Erik's baby picture I was actually looking at. Strange-I know, but cool too!
Ooops I left my vote on the wrong blog entry...rookie mistake, won't happen again :)
Just in case you haven't noticed, you both look very much alike in the face. But, head shape goes to Mom and hair-line to Dad, by a hair.:) I would have to say that I see Dad in most of his facial expressions (especially the close-up in the bouncer of Feb 3 posting) but can see Mom in many of the smiles. A great mix just as it should be.
I agree it's a mix. You both are beautiful and so is he.
I heard once that it's in our DNA to look like the dad for the first little while and then the mom's features show up more because that way the cavemen dad would let the baby live if it looked like him. If you believe that sort of thing.
Erik definately doesn't look like a caveman though.
I think he looks like Sandy tooo.

He is so cute. I still think he looks like his dad.
I say Casandra
Erik looks different every time I see his pictures (even the same pictures). Not sure I want to take sides on this one.
I have co-workers come into my office who will see my pictures of Jamie and Laurie and say "these girls are the spittin' image" of me. I just tell them they have never met JuLee. Fortunately, they look more like Mom.
