Born this way

5:38 PM

One of the projects I was referring to a few posts ago was kind of a huge old photo haul. I stole a few photo albums from my parents house and I have been slowly taking pics of old photos and storing them on my laptop, I would use the scanner but I really don't like it that much. It's been a riot posting them all on facebook and tagging my relatives, some of them are not too happy haha (bad perms and whatnot) but the baby pictures are awesome. I thought that I might share a few pics of me when I was a little "plum" as my Grandfather would refer to me as.


This is me, making a face that I am pretty famous for, at my Great-Grandparents house in Harrisville Michigan.


My aunt Terri and I at the beach in Harrisville, this beach was right outside of my Grandparents house.


Me, with my Mom, our Scottie Macky and the "Little red Chevrolet".  I want to say that this was taken in front of one of the trailers we lived in Lapeer Michigan, the city I was born in. 


I am going to assume this was taken in Harrisville too. Look how stylish I was in my awesome plaid coat!


As I go through the albums, I always seem to find pictures of me on top of car hoods. :P 


Me, at three with my little brother Mark. Hard to believe that this little guy is 23 already!


Me as a super-chubby baby with my brother Mark again. 


This has to be the most flattering picture of me as a child. Really, who puts a three year old in curlers!


Mark and I again. It's a really cute one of us all spiffy. And as you can see, here is the start of the bangs!

I was really into bows too. I kinda think that I resemble ET in this pic. 


And another piece of clothing that is plaid. I wish that I had a dress just like this in my size right now. 


This last one is my favorite. I am pretty sure that I just assumed my new baby brother was just another doll for me to play with. 


So that is it for now. I think I might post some more soon as I go through them, I really want to get a hold of the really old ones but I am not sure what my parents have. A lot of my mom's family's old pics were burnt in house fires so there is little to copy but I am on a mission to get what I can!

    Oh, yes! Yes Yes Yes!

    Thank you, Sara. We appreciate seeing these. They are precious.

    You look just like you, only younger. And, on a car-hood, you're a doll!

    Haha, these are great! Your so cute.

    Isn't it crazy how you can go through old photos and would just die for your old clothes in adult sizes, I do the same thing. But 10 years ago I probably cringed at the same outfits.

    That is cute that you were on cars so often. I love the one jacket you're wearing on one of the cars. Also I love the second to last photo of you with that beautiful dress you're in! It's awesome.

    You look so cute in your baby pictures. When I look at my pictures of myself when I was younger, I also wish I had some of the same outfits in the size I wear now. :P

    Aww you're such an adorable and happy kid. I love how you're laughing in every photo, but that hilariously morose school photo of yours. Thanks for sharing. I always look like such a nutcase in my childhood photos.

    ohhh my goodness, these are adorable. i love the last one, too! i put up some old family pictures on facebook like a year ago, and scanning those suckers took forever. it was worth it, but once i get the next batch i'll probably do what you did here and just take pictures of them.
