Yesterday, I took Emma to get her passport picture taken. I realize that many/most of our passport pictures look like mugshots and we all shudder at the thought of the powers that be in China matching us with our beautiful babies based on that ever so lovely passport style picture we all must provide with our adoption application. Anyhow, I wasn't thrilled with yesterday's picture and decided to take Emma to a different passport photo place today on the off chance we could get a picture which didn't look like her very first mugshot. Anyhow, here are the 2 pics. I swear these are both Emma and they were taken almost exactly 24 hours apart - does she not look like she just spent a month being the recipient of one of those TV makeover shows???lol Well, it seems obvious to us which is the better picture - what do you think? Honestly, if someone showed me these 2 pictures, I wouldn't even think it was the same child! You know how people say "oh, she looks just like so and so"... I don't even think Emma looks like Emma, forget about looking like anyone else!!lol Good thing we always have her "sticky outy" ear by which to positively identify her!lol

What a difference a new photo place makes WOW I wish I had a good photo mine really looks bad
You are NOT kidding! The one on the left looks like she has a bad cold, the other one is your Emma in all her Emma-cuteness! Weird how just a different picture can make you look so...well...different! Makes you wonder what celebs REALLY look like.....? :-)
Are you sure these are the same girl? Her face even has a different shape to it in the left photo...how strange is that. The photo on the right is cute, I think it's a great passport photo!
I hadn't looked at the blogs since last weekend, thanks for all the neat photos you've posted of recent. Emma sounds like such a little ham...I love your stories.

Debbie, I know, the shape of her face, her eyes, etc. just looks different...if I hadn't been with her, I wouldn't believe it was the same child!!lol

OK...you have to tell me where you did the second one. I have to go get Annslee's done this week. Hey..put up a side by side of her passport and her visa photo..bet that is a change! I know when we were getting Annslee's visa photo taken she was not happy..a minute later I was changing her poopy diaper on the counter..only in Guangzhou would you do that! Can you imagine me just plopping her up on the counter at Target?? ha, ha
Your blog is on my favorites list. I have a LID of 3/24/06 and your little Emma keeps me going. Janet was right in her post above. she looks like she has a cold with a 104 temperature on the left! She is beautiful no matter what, though. All the best
