Claiming prime real estate

Ever since Tomie arrived, we've been pondering her face, wondering who she looks most like. Of course she looks just like herself, but like all parents, we are parsing out her facial features and attributing them to either one or the other parent. It's almost as if we are prospectors, laying claim to parcels of baby face. That nose is all me! Those cheeks are mine!
Here's what we came up with,
* Cheeks are all Asato, plump and round
* Chin and lips are like Josh's when he was a baby
* Nose is (according to Josh) "structurally Ishimatsu, but with Kumata (Jolynn's mom's side) flourishes". (If that intrigues you, ask Josh what he meant.)
* Puffy eyes are like Josh's
* Open eyes are like Jolynn's
* Basically, the consensus is that when her eyes are closed, she looks more like Josh, but when they're open, she looks more like Jo.
Who do I look like?

Personally, I think she's all me, but what do you all think? Here are our baby pictures...

Heh heh.
It's actually worse than that...I'm emptying out a kleenex box, but ripping apart a BEER box.
And yes, Josh had a big head as a baby which causes his mom to hypothesize that it was the reason why he didn't walk for a while. The head weighted him down and upset his sense of balance. Heh heh.
hi tomie, wanna play sometime?
