Abby & Temple

It's 10:24pm and I (Emily) am up waiting for my laundry to finish. I waited until last minute to wash my favorite yellow dress for the big Arizona Bridal Show tomorrow. Andrew and I are exhausted from planning our entire approach, buying prints, creating a theme, creating flyers, etc. all in the last 3 days! I definitely think it will all pay off though. We spent all afternoon at the Phoenix Convention Center setting up so my sister-in-law Esther had Temple.

As I sit here rubbing my exhausted eyes I think about my niece Abby and the text I got from Esther today. When she dropped off Temple at the end of the day today, she said that Abby was really upset and kept saying "No, MY Temple. No, MY Temple!" Abby is Temple's ONLY cousin so far and I just LOVE them together! Abby is almost two now so she talks to Temple and will do ANYTHING for her, and Temple just stares at Abby! Temple does love to hear Abby talk to her because she smiles and smiles! It's the cutest thing ever. Esther's husband Jason (and Abby's dad) is Andrew's brother... some people think they look alike.... but other people (like myself) think that they don't. With that being said, some people think that Abby and Temple look identical. And others (like myself again) think that they don't really.

So because my wonderful husband thinks that Temple looks EXACTLY like Abby, and I don't, I thought it would be important to ask all of you. **This is similar to the show "The Marriage Ref"- let me know if I win or if Andrew does... (We are always on opposite sides of the spectrum- It keeps our marriage fun! :)) So...what do you think?

Here is ABBY right after she was born:

Not enough to tell? What about these...

  1. So I think that you can tell they are related but they do not look exactly the same. My vote is for Emily!

  2. Their "Eye Shape" is identical, therefore giving the impression they are twins. Their faces are different, but it is hard to ignore the identical eyes :)

  4. This is so cute em! what is funny is that I haven't thought they looked identical, just some similarities, until you posted these pictures...now I think they look even more alike! Definitely similar eyes, I think the face shape is different...but both SO precious! Overall though vote goes to Emily:)

    I loved getting to see able take care of temple yesterday, I have never gotten to see them interact before and it was so fun - abby is obsessed with her cousin! Cant wait to have a day with precious temple again soon...Have a great time at the show today!

  5. Of course I know my daughter pretty well so I know they are not identical...however, the only way to truely tell is if you had pictures of them in their first year with out any title on them indicating who is who and you let the audience choose who they thing each child is in the picture. I think that would be telling.

    Good luck today. You're gonna do great and whoever gets you guys for their wedding shoot is getting probably the best deal in Phoenix. 5 years from now they won't believe the product they got for their money. You guys are legit, unique, and put out high quality work.
