Marlyn! Proof of the McAdams/Stewart/Cooper genes.



I've never heard anyone express any doubt before that Gem looks like Brian... she arguably has my hair and eye color (though hers are both darker than mine were at her age) but otherwise she is ALL Brian. The above are pictures of Brian at around 14 months I think.



I think this picture is even a more stark comparison. It's Brian's mother as a baby. Though it's black and white, her hair appears to be lighter than Brian's was and closer to the shade of Grace's. And she's got that really round chubbiness here that Grace definitely had.

If you still have doubts, view the video montage in the upper right hand of this page.

EDITED: Justed wanted to add that the woman holding Brian in the above picture is his Great Aunt Grace, our Gem's namesake.

Okay, Angie, you win. She looks like Brian. But I do still see you. Probably for the same reason people see me in Alex. She looks NOTHING like me (other than curly hair -- both blonde but mine is not natural -- and I straighten my curls!) but she has all my expressions. It makes her look like me. I bet Gem has your expressions too and that's what I see.
