I used to tell people I'd swear she wasn't mine if I hadn't given birth to her. She even has a lot of his personality traits. However, 3 years later she is starting to look more like me and people are commenting on that now. So have hope, she could still end up looking more like you! :) I had to laugh at the Luke Bryan comment, I went to 4 Jason shows when I was pregnant with her and boy was she active at those shows and his CDs were the only ones that would calm her down in the car after she was born!spoiledangelbaby2001https://www.blogger.com/profile/11851722911382576828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707289527403265174.post-41346312831036055922012-01-13T07:16:17.868-08:002012-01-13T07:16:17.868-08:00Don't lose hope yet.

But I've had more people tell me they are little miniature clones of me. I still don't see it. But other people do and I hear it constantly, from people who meet us for the first time and from people in our family. <br /><br />Also, how wonderful that she has such a strong bond with her daddy. Girls go through phases though. Some days my girls don't want anything to do with me. They just want to hang out with daddy and other days, they don't want anything to do with him. They just want to be close to me. It happens and it's very normal. <br /><br />Just try to make sure you have something special between you and your daughter that is comforting to her. For example, one thing my 6yr old and I do is snuggle up and read a devotion together at night. This often leads to quiet one-on-one conversation about things that are important to her, such as friendships, school, her activities, etc... It's an awesome chance for she and I to bond and talk about things she won't talk about with her daddy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10594967600495492941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707289527403265174.post-73639033354399505172012-01-13T05:24:57.359-08:002012-01-13T05:24:57.359-08:00I know what you mean....but on the other hand, I&#...I know what you mean....but on the other hand, I'm so grateful that my husband is the love of their lives and vica versa. Girls turn out so much happier and stable when they have a good daddy who is involved etc. At the end of the day, they still turn to momma when they fall and skin their knee! <br /><br />Ali from VBAlisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10921622531577040837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1707289527403265174.post-60769775205690381532012-01-12T23:19:36.362-08:002012-01-12T23:19:36.362-08:00There are some things that Daddy just won't be...There are some things that Daddy just won't be able to do for her-don't worry.

I read once that babies look like their dad's in the beginning from evolutionary times, it protected the woman if the baby looked like her mate. I don't know if it's true but I always thought it was a funny theory. I do like that you are giving her your taste in music!! Very smart mommy!!!

Blond as both of them. <br /><br />When I went to pick him up from school one day with her, one of the nice grandparents who picks up her grandkids was nice enough to say, "They're both yours?

I do think that girls get more of their Dads, and boys get more of their Moms. That's just my take on it, and what I notice the most.

But not to let myself worry I said they will someday...They still don't but they are super crazy cute so I am okay with it.
