Mini Me or Mini You?

When Dottie was first born, we immediately started identifying which features looked like me and which looked like Alisha. I had never seen pictures of myself (or Alisha) as an infant, so I assumed that she looked mostly like Alisha. Once we got home, we got out some of my baby pictures and were surprised to find that the upper half of Dottie's face looks strikingly like mine:

Dottie's chin is definitely Alisha's, and we're waiting to find out whether she got her lips from mommy or daddy. Alisha is hoping to see dimples soon, but for now Dottie's upper lip looks like Alisha's and the lines on the side of her mouth look like mine.
