    what do your kids do that you or their dad does?

    conciously or not is there something that your kids do that you or daddy does?

    DD and her father both stick there big toes up and down it doesnt sound like anything really but he does it and it freaks me out.. noticed the other day she does it too, just sitting there she sticks her big toe up and down while she was doing something LOL

    as far as me, nothing that ive noticed so far, but havent really thought about it til this toe thing!

    DS1 bends his second toe under his big toe when he is thinking, same as DH.

    My girls sleep in the exact same position as Dh... For me that means that regardless of who I am sleeping next to, I cant get comfy

    DD1 and dh will bounce their left leg when they are trying to prove a point (they are normally sitting down)

    Maybe its a learned behaviour, but the girls eat their fruit in the same painful way I eat mine.

    I have this habit of sticking my tongue out to the side while concentrating, noticed DD1 doing it the other day as she was setting up her trains!

    DD (14mos) has already picked up that DH says "Cheers." When I'll say "Here you go!" and she'll say "Cheers."...........

    I can't think of anything specific, but DS looks every bit like his dad, but he has my sense of humour and quirky mannerisms so I think he has my brains (lucky for him )

    DD2 is nothing like her biological father but so much like the man who's stepped into that role it's frightening

    We see things in her that are 100% him even things she's never seen him do!! It's caused a lot of questions in the extended family!!!

    DD1 is all me and DS is all his biological father.

    Dd is busy busy like her father, doesn't sit still at all.

    She sleeps exactly like me, on her tummy with her arm inside the pillow case! And what's bizarre is the other night my mum checked on her and came out saying 'oh she sleeps just like me, even with her hand inside the pillowcase' lol so must be hereditary.

    Dd is spitting image of me but very much her fathers busy personality, with my fiery temper and passion. She is an interesting mix!

    DD1 frowns just like me and I frown just like my dad. Not in a bad way, just seems to be we are natural frowners.

    DD1 is a fidgeter just like her dad - they both drive me nuts with it. They both get the same sort of facial expressions that he gets when they/he are playing dumb.

    DD2 is the spitting iage of her dad, but has my personality and anxieties the poor little thing. DD1 looks more like me but thankfully has her dad's relaxed and easy going nature.

    DS sleeps like and juggles his right leg like me. He is very similar to DH in every other way tho. Even his lack of inside voice!

    DS walks like his dad and he kind of half winks when explaining something and the quick wave of the hand when talking and dismissing something is all me

    Dd1 rolls her eyes when one of her siblings does something annoying (totally me)

    Ds walks the same as his dad. And when they both stop to think of something they put their hands on their hip. It's too cute
