This is Charlie with a picture of my grandfather back during WWII. I wish I had a pic of my grandfather when he was even younger, but I think you can see the similarities even here. The facial structure, the forehead, the nose all seem nearly identical to me.
Every DiGiuseppe has a big nose. It's our most beautiful feature. You've seen pics of me, but here's Annaleigh with my Aunt Linda (right). You can see the noses; aren't they great?!? Otherwise, I think she looks like my cousin Jodi (left, from about 10 years ago).
Lily Bug is all from Brooke's side. Those cheeks! Both sides of Brooke's family have big cheeks (Brooke used to joke a lot about her big 'punkin head,' though that's lessened a lot in recent years). Here's Annaleigh with Brooke's dad, Ron, and her maternal grandmother, Nana.

Joe & Brooke... This is Travis's (mom) and he showed me your blogspot of those beautiful babies. He put it in my favorites as Joe's triplets, so I can follow it everyday. What a great son he is! Those little bundles will be home before you know it. They are so precious. I will keep them in my prayers. Denise
Loved the pictures - of one thing I AM sure - Joe looks just like his grandfather! If Charlie is so fortunate to resemble both of you he will be very lucky. Continuing to pray for you and your beautiful babies. Hope Lily has improved significantly - God Bless.
Joe & Brooke,
Just wanted to let you know you have prayers coming from another continent too! I am a military wife/mom/teacher living overseas while my husband serves his third tour in Iraq. We are praying for you, Lily, Charlie, and Annaleigh. Your babies are beautiful and we wish you all the best.
Much love and hope,
Cassie Winters
I'm just a reader who found your blog linked to a friend's micropreemie blog...also in NJ.
My prayers are with you and those beautiful babies!
I did a quick look this afternoon and just came back to view again with hopes of another update. You know I never realized this - Joe you do look like Pop Pop........ Annaleigh realy does look like Jodi and Lily is a combination of Nana and Grandpop Ron... You have some look-a-likes here.
Keep blogging. I hope Lil Lily Bug is doing better. Kisses...
All My Love Always, Auntie :) xoooxoxoxoxxoxoxoxxo
Dear Mr.D
This is my first time commenting, but I've been following your blog any free chance I can get. I have to say that I definitely see a resemblance to you and your grandfather, so Charlie is probably going to grow up to be a mini-me of his Daddy! Lucky Him :) I could never imagine how you are feeling right now. I just wanted to let you know I think about you and Brook and the babies everyday and wish the best for everyone. You have three beautiful reasons to keep you going, even when your spirit is down. Also, don't forget that you have plenty of supporters...and I'm just speaking for all us students who love you dearly! I know you're tired but hang in there.
Best Wishes,
JackieWolfe
...btw, I looooooooove Brooke's cooking blog. She seriously has the exact same taste in dessert that I do. It's kind of scary. I can't wait to try out some of those recipes!
Jackie Wolfe...again
