First and foremost, we think it’s fair to say that these siblings completely changed over the years. They look nothing like they did back in 1988. The recreation photo was actually taken in 2015. So, they’re even older now! Back then, it was clear that the sister was the oldest. But as the years progressed, the brothers completely outgrew her.
Now she’s the smallest of them all! And yet, she was still committed enough to hold her baby brother and display a facial expression of pure joy. Looks like the topless brother still didn’t finish that book he started way back when!
The Dynamic Duo
Siblings are awesome sometimes, let’s face it. And this brother and sister never skipped a beat. From the original photo, you can tell that the sister cared so deeply for her baby brother from day one. And it seems like that unconditional love never disappeared, as demonstrated in the second photo.
They are just as happy now as they were when they took the original. And we appreciate that they kept the attire as similar as possible. This is always a welcome feature. It is as if the sister’s wearing the exact same headband — she just ended up outgrowing it.
Some Things Have Changed
In 2011, these three sisters and one brother all reunited for Thanksgiving and decided to reenact a photo taken back in 1993. But as you can see, the order in height completely changes over the course of the 18 years. So now, it’s difficult to work out who’s the youngest and who’s the oldest.
But at least we know who the brother is after all this time. The fact though, that they decided to change up the photo uniform kind of grinds our gears a little. Was it really too much work to look for some light pairs of jeans and some turquoise shirts?
Bathtub Time Machine
We have a theory about these two photos, and it’s a bit bizarre, so bear with us: It’s almost as if the brothers jumped into the tub back in the 90s; the mother took the photo, and as soon as the flash went off, it triggered some kind of time travel mechanism, and the brothers grew by 25 years in an instant!
The only problem is that the four brothers got a bit too big for the tub. We’re also curious to know what happened to the dinosaur toys. Did they just vanish? Or did the brother on the right sit on them by accident?
We Like Long Shorts!
There’s something just inherently funny about pulling up your pants to above your belly button. It just looks weird, and we’re all for it. This trio of brothers was having a jolly old time in the sun all those years ago. We guess they were having some kind of water fight based on the fact that there’s a hose in both photos.
We like how the grass in the field also matured along with the humans. It’s that kind of attention to detail that we really appreciate. Apparently, they made their mother laugh so hard when she saw the recreation, and it’s not hard to see why!
