You. Back in the day.

I love the simplicity of the shirt! You also look kind of sad in a way.

Two months old.

cute baby pics

Check out my shiner!

Also, it seems I really like to take picture of myself with my hair in my face.

I have an admission. I'm really a vampire guys. Sorry I never mentioned it before. I guess I finally trust you all.

There's this too,

You're a total babe in this one. Seriously, I love the make-up around your eyes.

Thanks Alecia. That must have been 2007.

The photo in my report card (more like a notebook in Romania) in 2002. Sixth grade.

Almost 17, the day after cutting 10 inches of my hair.

2007 New Year's party

Only picture I have as a redhead. Autumn of 2007.

18th birthday.

2007. This picture got used in a magazine.

That was the year I was a squirrel.

Embarrassing.

Barely even recognizable!

here's a pic of me from 1927

Still kicking, girl!

I love that picture of you kit!

Irina looks good with her hair darkened.

The squirrel reminds me of Sarah all excited about wanting to come to america and see all the squirrels. I'm pretty sure that was sarah. Now I am questioning my memory. hhhhhmmm

You can tell! That's great, Amber, most people don't realise I had my hair dyed dark chocolate or something similar when I was 18.

It looks really nice. I really like it.

Okay, I know I have bumped this thread a few times already... but my grandma gave me a bunch of photos I never had, or even (some of them) saw before. Some baby pictures of me (I never saw a single picture of myself under the age of three, except one portrait hanging on the wall, until I was seventeen and found a whole album of them by accident in her library one day. Up until then I thought there just were no pictures of me as a baby. But now she gave me a bunch.

My stepdad giving me a bath. (my mom only knew him for two weeks before she married him [and the marriage only lasted two years, too bad, could've been a great love story])

This one *may* be very important. I have to ask my mom about it, but I believe the two other babies are my brother and sister (my dad made a whole bunch of babies with a whole bunch of ladies in the early eighties) I've never met any of them, not counting in babyhood.

With my sister and grandpa.

With my brother.

for fun, my grandma.

Those flowers must have been very big or you must've been a very tiny baby. And in the last picture you look a lot like me when I was 12-13.

I was probably only about a month or so old in the one with the flowers. the last one, I would have been nine years old.

I love the baby pics pepper. I was looking at all the pics on fb and Gabe as a baby looks just like baby pepper hehe.

Here are a couple pics of me back in the day that I had scanned at my grandma's

I had crooked pointer finger syndrome.
And my grandpa loves birds.

He has a blue macaw like the one sitting on his shoulder. Her name is Dory and she is almost as old as I am she's around 23 years old. Oh and this picture was taken in Old Town San Diego around 97' or '98.

!!!

Look at all the birds! You look both pleased and highly apprehensive about them.

I don't remember what happened but I think the bird on my head was having trouble staying there and the one in my hands didn't want to lay down. I just wanted to get that picture over with.

I looked through my childhood photo albums today.

Always been small. Look at that chrysanthemum!

Dad and I. 3 months old

First holiday. 11 months old

Fourth grade Christmas festivity. Yes, that is the lace bolero I wore this year at the prom

Modelling. Almost 11.

In ex-Soviet Romania, you get married at 12. No, not really, but that was indeed a wedding dress.

And mum and dad on their wedding day. 1990, mum was pregnant with me

Aww, cute pictures... except the one of your first holiday, that monkey/thing is terrifying!

Here is a picture of me at 19...which is sadly, kind of back in the day now :

Age 7:

Incidentally, I don't know what the hell happened to my hair between those years...

You look a lot like your mum.

Wow, Pepsi Max! That really is back in the day.

It still exists!

Maybe in England. We haven't had it in ages.

...

I want a Tibethat...

NOW!

Then you must go here!

Irina...you look so much like your mother I had to go back just to double check.

*sigh*

the archery pic is so cool, but the cat is totally stealing the show in that christmas photo. so cute!

hattie, i had the same straight bobbed hair as you in that picture when i was 7 or 8 too.. and now my hair is wavy. puberty does strange things.

the only existing picture of me and my dad post-little kid. I think I was 15 in this.

Puberty gave me curly hair, but, um... Yeah.

I don't even know which of Irina's picture to comment on, the are all so great.

I was a loudmouth.

I love those Irina pictures! Fantastic!

Back in the day during Christmas time

Adorable!

I love, love, love this thread!

Thanks Irina. I've been looking at a bunch of old pictures that I haven't seen a while and my mom dressed me ridiculously elaborate with ruffles and petticoats and stuff.

So cute! Do you still wear that outfit?

I love those.

I have no idea where that outfit is and I would not wear it even if it was around.

WHAT da eff is that on the side of your mother?

It looks like some sort of seaweed otter gremlin shadow creature monster with creepy monkey hands.

No Really???
WTF is it!
It is freaking me out.
Why didn't I notice it before?
What
What?

I am never going to the beach in Romania. Ever.

It's a monkey! With a scarf wrapped around it.

Jesus, look how blond I was!
