Let's just say that Cassie is very much her mother's daughter They don't call her MJ for nothing! let's see what she's got from me
Well her looks, obviously, she looks exactly like I did when I was her age The look that she gets when she's concentrating (scrunched up forehead and the pout, NOT an attractive look for either me or the poor child!) Her temper - pretty easy going but then when she's gonna blow, watch out! The look she gets when she laughs Her laugh, now that we mention it The way that she plays with her hair when she's tired or bored The look she gets on her face when she's mad She's not a crier, she'll try and stop herself from crying which I do worry about sometimes because I think shegets it from me And let's not forget the ability to twist her daddy around her little finger . . . what can I say, I taught her all she knows
She doesn't seem to have much from Jason, except that she will keep trying on and on at something until she gets it right, just like her daddy does She's picked up a couple of his habits, like touching me when she walks past me like he does and calling me gorgeous! hat is so funny
Apart form that, she's MJ all the way! I'm going to have trouble with her in a few years xx
JAYMESMOM replied: What does Jayme get from me. Had you asked me 6 months ago the answer would have been nothing but now!!
Her temper, she will tolerate stuff for a little while but when she goes you had better run.
Her hair, its soft, cottony and wavy just like mine when I was little.
My dimples (one on each cheek)
Her love of books. (She reads them to herself in her own words.)
Her sense of style (but maybe thats because I dress her and buy her clothes )
Her laugh
Her love of cheese (She could eat it by the block)
The taking of money from daddy (I taught her that - he he )
Wanting to go shopping at the store (not that we can afford much more than the necessities but she gets excited when she gets in the cart)
and her desire to be everywhere at every time and not be left out (I am a nosey neighbor - i want to know whats going on.)
The only thing she really gets from dad is her height and skinny body.

mom21kid2dogs replied: Olivia gets the "You are JUST like your mother" moniker all the time, too! She doesn't resemble me at all at the same age in looks but she does have most of my expressions~ a function her spending so much time with me, I suspect!
The other things that she gets from me: My squinty little eyes My lack of a "shut off valve" when eating LOVES to talk Fast speech LOUD speech She can memorize music after a couple of hearings Rolls her eyes Laughs and smiles pretty much constantly No "shut off valve" while eating Zero art ability Never gives up (a good and bad thing) Loves to be the boss Very Independent Loves swimming, water, the beach
Things she gets from Daddy Her beautiful blue eyes Her beautiful dark complexion Love of sweets, especially chocolate & ice cream Athletic Ability Musical ability Has to busy every moment of the day Can't sleep at night Goofyness!
DVFlyer replied: They both sleep on their back with their mouths open and that little line of drool coming down their cheek.
That's from me for sure.
coasterqueen replied: OMG! All my horrible habits is what she's got and unfortunately I KNOW she has.
1. She talks really loud instead of a NORMAL voice. Could be because I do or is it yelling? SIGH.
2. Bossy tone and puts her hands on her hips often.
(darn thing posted before I finished )
3. Very picky eater (but likes foods i don't) and she'll gag if she tries something she doesn't think she's gonna like, just like me
um, that's all that I can think of right now.
Oh and she's just a spirited child in general like I was/am
DansMom replied: Daniel has a sensitive digestive system, just like DH.
Daniel likes rhythm like DH and melody like me.
Daniel totally has my sense of humor and my long eyelashes
His coloring and texture of hair and color of eyes, and his skinny lanky body, are all DH. Even the way his knees bump out from his legs and the flatness of his but are exactly like a miniature DH.
MomToJade&Jordan replied: She managed to get some good and bad traits from both DH and I.
From me: Her mile wide stubborn streak. Jade is so hard-headed which leads us to butt heads every one on a while.
Her smile. Yeah that is all me. She even gets the same crinkle under her eye that I do.
Her hair. Not the color, but I had those same curls when I was her age.
Her love of books. I am an avid reader and she usually likes to pull out her books and read along with me. She likes to look at the pictures and make up her own stories.
Her love of music. She kind of gets this from both of us, but she also has a great ear which she got from me. I do have that music degree.
From DH: Her scowl. Oh that is Daddy all the way.
The fact that she has no fear. Yes this has lead to many heart-stopping moments in the past 3 years.
She got her daddy's long legs. Same shape same length, kind of funny.
Daddy's ears. Down to the very detail.
Of course the blue eyes and blond hair come from DH. She has my eye and eyebrow shape though.
I am going to have to say that her imagination comes from both of us. She is so creative and just makes us laugh with the stuff she comes up with.
aspenblue1 replied: Isabella sticks her tounge out when she is concentrating on something like Jason does.
She gets her stubborness from me.
dolfinrse replied: Zack has a really bad temper which he gets from both of us. He had Dh's long eyelashes He has my feet. Dh laughs at us because our pinkie toe has almost no toenail. When he is watching tv and sitting in his chair, he curls his toes under on the floor, just like dh.
kel replied: kira looks like none of us LOL but she has her daddy's chin (they both have a dimple..) and loong eyelashes..she has her daddy's feet..
she is patient and very affectionate ..like her daddy..she calls me "pooky" LOL and she orders me around a lot..all daddy!! i love all the "daddy" in her though..
she gets her cleaning habit from me..she is super organised ..like me..she says "oh god" a lot (like me *blush*)...and she is super talkative (like me) . i think she got a good deal cause dh and i are soo different and she has a little bit of both of us in her..she gets along with all sorts of different personalities at school which is a bonus imo..
SOUTHERN MOMMY replied: What the oldest gets from me- He looks just like me , he loves food , he loves sports,animals,and racecars, he lets people run over him he is very easy going 99% of the time but the other 1% you better watch out, he hates turnip,mustard or collard greens and loves watermelon From his dad not much except he is very smart and that did not come from me for sure What the little one got from me: not one thing and that is no lie From his daddy: tall and skinny, blonde hair, he hates to sit still, he is a fireball 100% of the time , the abillity to stay awake 24 hours a day , his love for music and guitars, and last but not least the way he can talk his way out of anything . but, he looks like niether my or his dad he looks just like my SIL
A&A'smommy replied: Well lol these aren't good habits and I feel bad about them I try VERY hard to be "good" around her
