My twins

I don't know what the deal is but lately everyone (particularly people who aren't around me very much or who are really close to me) keeps telling me that I look just like my sister, or that I look a lot like her today. I mean I know we're twins and all and look alike but not THAT alike...right? I mean I always thought that as we got older we looked less alike. Also, I am apparently looking increasingly like my mother - to the point where people approach her and talk to her thinking she is me. It's kind of weird to have so many people that look like me. So here's the challenge - look at the pictures below and guess who is me, who is Elyse (my sister) and I'll even throw some mom pictures in there.

First, this is me and my sister. I'm on the left and she's on the right


Now, you're on your own... I have a few pics of us growing up so you can help me decide if we are in fact looking MORE alike as we get older or less alike.
Picture 1

This one's pretty hard - I'm only 92% sure I know which one I am

Picture 2

We did a lot of the matching outfit in alternating colors thing

Picture 3

Okay now for the getting older pictures...

Picture 4


Picture 5

Notice my mom in this picture as a reference for future pictures

Now, for the current pictures. I'll throw in some of my mom too, so you have to guess which one is me, which one is my sister, AND which one is my mom....good luck!

Now it's your turn! Just tell me what side I'm on, and in the ones with my sis and Mom tell me who's who by saying what side everyone is on. Mom & Jeff you don't get to guess

*****update*******

I'm taking Kasey's suggestion and adding individual pics of me, Elyse and my mom so now see if you can tell who's who...

Kasey Joy said...

this is fun! I'm glad to be the first to try...I feel pretty confident...less so about the younger pics, but here goes:

pic 1 - you're on the right

pic 2 - you're on the left

pic 3 - you're on the left

pic 4 - you're on the left

pic 5 - you're on the right (by your dad)

pic 6 - erin, mom, elyse

pic 7 - erin, mom, elyse

pic 8 - mom, elyse, erin (this one was tricky)

pic 9 - erin, elyse, mom

pic 10 - elyse, mom, erin

I have to say, I think you look more like your mom or sister if you aren't standing right next to them...does that make sense? Maybe you should try putting pics up with just one of ya'll in them, and then we have to guess which one of ya'll it is...ok, you HAVE to let me know how I did!

OK, here it goes...
pic 1 - right
pic 2 - right
pic 3 - left
pic 4 - left
pic 5 - right
pic 6 - left
pic 7 - left
pic 8 - right (mom on left)
pic 9 - left (mom on right)
pic 10 - right (mom in middle)

I hope I got those right! I think it is easier to tell you guys apart the older you are...I really struggled with some of the younger pics.

Yay! Here goes nothing!

The first is a total guess: you on right

#2 you on right

#3 you on left

#4 you on left

#5 you on right

#6 you on far left, then mom, elyse

#7 you, mom elyse

#8 mom, elyse you

#9 you, elyse, mom

#10 elyse, mom, you

I am confident about ALL the current ones... I don't think y'all are looking more alike, but maybe from a distance when y'all aren't together?? :)

adding...

11- Elyse
12- you
13- mom

Natalie said...

i would have to say that i can tell you apart when you are together. i agree with kasey joy in the fact that if i just saw elyse i might think she was you, but if you were together i would know the difference. i think.

I disagree with everyone on picture #1. I bet you are on the left.
and #2 I think you are left

thanks for giving me a fun activity to do during my lunch. erin hudson agrees with me on all but #2.

My question: Is Jeff too scared to do it and get one wrong???? :)

Elaine said...

Fun game! I think I could tell you apart when you're together. I don't think you look like your mom enough to confuse the two of you, but the resemblence is definitely there!

#1 - right
#2 - right
#3 - left
#4 - left
#5 - right
#6 - left
#7 - left
#8 - mom, elyse, you
#9 - elyse, you, mom
#10 - elyse, mom, you
#11 - elyse
#12 - you
#13 - mom

You are too funny and your friends seem to know you well! Since I don't get to vote, may I just add... You come from a family of HOT women! =)
XOXO

i think you all look alike, but i would only confuse any of you if i didn't know YOU. there is just a little something different about your face and elyse's, and, since i know YOU, i don't think it's too difficult to tell you apart. however, i wouldn't even attempt on the younger ones, except...has elyse always been a little taller than you?
