Cool Is your child a 'Mini Me'?

I was reading a magazine today and there was a picture of Terri and Bindi Irwin all dressed up to receive their recent award.

Bindi had the replica of her mothers hair style - blunt fringe and long at the back - it was a photo of them holding Bindi's award.

The haircut is old and dated enough on Terri but to make a child have the same cut as her Mum?

Perhaps Bindi wants to look like her Mum - who knows but the haircut was far too old fashioned for her.

Sometimes 'mini me' children can be cute but alot of the time it is wrong on so many levels.

Is your child a 'mini me' of yourself or have they got their own style?

Just curious.

I saw a little boy dressed identical to his Dad, it was so funny - everything was matching.

But giving your daughter the same haircut as yourself is tragic.

Bindi looks so much older than her years.

our youngest is the absoloute sitting image of his dad - facially, body shape, and even walks like him. The only thing thats different is he has reddish hair (more strawberry blonde) whereas hubs is salt and pepper dark.

but then we dug out a school pic of him age 6 .... and there he is with red hair and the same face! I mean not similar to our boy but IDENTICAL, its bloody weird!

oldest is blonde, different body shape and looks more like me. They never dress alike, their haircuts are different but they share lots of facial similarities and sound the same so you'd know they're brothers.

Default Re: Is your child a 'Mini Me'?

my teenage sons are most certainly not like me as i like to shower on a regular basis! they do how ever share their fathers mannerisms for loud flatulance in public places.

i live in jeans and t's and my daughter is the girliest girl possible, wearing with matching accessories. her hair has to be just so, and all clothing pink.

so i am wondering if my 'mini me' was possibly mixed up in the delivery suite!

My two girls are exactly the same - I couldn't be less girly if I tried (never was really!).

Funny though, oldest looks and has a similar personality to me and youngest looks just like her dad. She's (age 4) fuming that she has her dad's legs - though she'll be happy later (his are far more attractive than mine!).

God No!!!! My kids look nothing like me or act nothing like me. They are all so different in everyway.
I wouldn't have it any other way

Without a doubt, she has shaped up and firmed up - she looks very polished these days.

I wonder if the zoo has changed much since Steve died - his presence was everywhere really, the press reckoned that Terri wanted to turn it into a theme park but how true that is I dont know.

But really, Bindi is a grade A mini me of Terri.
