vertigokitten Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I have a couple of earlier pictures--I'm as bald as an onion. In this one at least I have some hair and I'm taller now. Gayle, you haven't changed a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookmarm Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 LOL... that "SC Gayle" doesn't change! She DOES still look the same! I never was bald...always had a head full of hair. My only beauty, (sort of)... ever!!!! Sadly my most shown baby pic has my hair swept up 'Kewpie doll' fashion into a top spike. My dear brother photo-fiddled with the pic and cut it off for me later!

Sherry Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 This is the only real baby picture I have. That's me being held, with my brother and cousins-all boys. Think I got spoiled a little? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesterfieldzoo Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I don't have a scanner hooked up to anything. I will have to see what I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherry Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I just happened to have that one from when I did family scrapbooks for my kids. But it's a good way to store them in case of fire, etc. I have them on photobucket, so they can be retrieved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eglefther Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I don't have any baby pics...they burned down with the house...great seeing everyone's pics though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilight1000 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 What a great idea! I love seeing all the wonderful pictures! Most of my belongings are in storage but I'll see if I can find something. For the people who put their picture in their avatar but not in their post, is there a way that I can enlarge it? The eyesight not being what it was . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heidiiiii Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 oh Shar, that is such a shame. I am sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherry Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I'm sorry you lost them. As I said, this is all I have. When my mom died so suddenly, we got what we could find out of the house before the estate sale. Somehow the photo albums disappeared, so I have very few. That's why I'm such a bug about making electronic copies of everything. I have a stack of CD's full of scanned family photos from every side of my and DH's families, along with all the marriage, birth, death, certificates, family trees, etc. I really encourage anyone who has a scanner or access to one to do this. no expense other than blank CD's and time.

Wolfie Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 You are all sooooo cute! I have no baby pictures of myself! Sorry. But take it from me, I had blond hair, blue eyes, and usually dirt on my hands! I loved to play in the dirt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heidiiiii Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Somehow the photo albums disappeared, so I have very few. My mother`s photo albums disappeared too. All the way to my sister`s house.. <_< That is the last sticking point that I have with her. Lots of bad blood between us in the past but I am over it all (no ill will on my part) but the thievery of the albums still pi**es me off. (she will not make copies of any of them for my children). I only have 2 of my baby pictures. She has all the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherry Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 That, I just don't understand! I don't have many relatives alive, but have traded photos with them. And Larry's cousins and I are always finding new photos and sending scans to each other. I've met a lot of distant relatives through genealogy groups and gotten some wonderful trades that way. it's not like it costs them anything but time, and I've gotten and given, lots of genealogy information that way. My MIL's dad was killed when she was very young, so she knew little or nothing about that side of her family. But I was able to compile a pretty good tree for her and connect her with some cousins she never knew she had. Just one of the other wonderful things I've gotten from the internet! On the other hand! My family has been in Texas since before our revolution, still own the same farm. Our great great grandfather donated the land for the first school/Masonic Lodge in Wise county. My great uncle had one of those panoramic photos of the entire town standing in front of the building, rolled up in a box. When he died at 96, the relatives cleaned his house out, but gave me a box of old albums and papers they didn't want to mess with-nothing to sell there, so they basically discarded it in my car. It wasn't but a few weeks before someone thought of that photo and started calling, wanting to know if it was in there-and if it was, they were supposed to have it! Needless to say, I told them I had no idea what they were talking about, and the framed photo is hanging in my hall with other family pictures. There were all sorts of neat photos of the original farmhouse, our great great in his Confederate uniform, WWI photos, since this uncle was the family 'packrat', even an autographed picture of Mary Pickford as a child (also framed and hanging) that he got when he was stationed in California. They may have got the antiques, but I got the good stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecats Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 this is a cute idea. i'll try to get a photo scanned in and on the tread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 and usually dirt on my hands! I loved to play in the dirt! You too? I was a mud-pie princess and in later years I was a rock hound. I was always happiest if I was digging in the dirt. I'm a little late on this one but I finally got around to scanning in a baby picture. This was at 3 months. My mother wanted a girly-girl so she dressed me in frills, lace and mary janes till I was around 4 and had a major rebellion about my wardrobe. I'm pretty sure that was due to my being tired of not being able to put my arms down at my sides coz of all the starched petticoats! The only thing that took was the jewelry. I still have the little ring I was wearing in this picture. Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotKateHepburn Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 How fun! I love seeing all y'all's pictures! Here's mine. I was 1 yo. The year is 1970. Bet you couldn't tell by my dress lol I do have other pics of me but none of them are scanned and online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmgervais Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 How come some of the pictures are no longer there? We're they only put in the avatar? Here I am at about 1-1/2 years old, in the fall of 1966, playing in the backyard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Mine was just in my avatar, but I'll post it here ... me at 6 months old in June 1941 and a new one of me at about 2-1/2 years old by the wishing well in my granduncle's back yard. This one is Lloyd's favorite photo of me. I was a blue-eyed towhead. My mom said she wanted her first-born to have blonde hair and blue eyes, despite the fact that she and dad both had dark hair and brown eyes. The right genes clicked for me, although my sis and bro both have dark hair and brown eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
