When My Son Doesn’t Look Like Curious George, He Looks Like Bruce Lee

My son is long overdue for a haircut, but my husband is procrastinating on taking him to the barber. I thought it was because it’s cold in the winter and longer hair will keep him warmer, but I learned today that apparently my husband is very proud of little man’s hair-resemblance to one of his […]

  • Well, I won’t tell you that your son looks like a monkey because it could be taken wrong ๐Ÿ˜› I will say he’s a cutie whether he’s fashioned after a kung-fu movie star or an animated primate!

  • Oh my gosh, this is the best! I personally like the monkey look but he makes a cute little ninja too ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • Love Bruce Lee and the resemblance. Now he just needs to work on those moves to perfect the entire package.

  • Cute! You should submit these to the “Totally Looks Like” part of Cheezburger.com.

  • Penelope

    Oh no way, lol, don’t those sites have visitors that totally rip people apart? That’s my baby ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Didn’t think about that since I mostly visit the kitties. Nobody rips them apart! LOL

  • He’s an adorable Ninja Monkey ๐Ÿ™‚

  • He is just the cutest little thing! I’m a big fan of Bruce Lee!

  • LOL I like the shorter look on him as well. Cute either way!

  • I like it better in the ‘Curious George’ cut, but he is a cutie either way!

  • Oh wow, yep I see the resemblance, totally cute no matter how his hair is, however I’m a fan of clean cut. Which reminds me, my son needs a haircut bad and doesn’t want to:(

  • Cute!

    My oldest son actually asks me not to cut his hair short in the winter because he has thick hair and it keeps his head warm!

  • OMG. Thanks so funny because he so does look like bruce lee. It’s adorable.

  • Um, yeah! I can definitely see the resemblance but I thinks it’s the hair though lol.

  • This is too cute Penelope. I think he is pretty Curious with a hint of Ninja!

  • Angela

    He’s quite a cutie and that’s one thing I can say for sure!

  • My son’s hair looks the SAME way when he is overdue for a haircut. Now, that you mention it, the hairstyle definitely has an uncanny resemblance to Bruce Lee. Like you, I prefer my son’s hair to be short, too. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Okay that’s hilarious! I totally see it. My son usually has a crew cut too {though with how fast his hair grows, it doesn’t last long} &he’s just about always wearing a Curious George shirt or sweater so my dude looks like a monkey too. ๐Ÿ˜›

  • Ha! Cute comparisons. I think he looks good either way. ๐Ÿ™‚ My son needed a haircut so I tried to help him the other day. Not sure what he should be compared to with what I did to that poor boy’s hair. LOL

  • He’s an ADORABLE lil’ monkey .. but can’t believe how much he looks like Bruce Lee!

  • That is soooooo funny! I can see the resemblance in both instances.

  • I like the little monkey boy myself! (in a good way!)

  • He is so adorable no matter who he is looking like, but it is so funny how we can look like different people at different times.

  • LOL, the many different looks of little boys ๐Ÿ™‚ Love it.

  • He does resemble Bruce Lee! He’s also a cute little monkey, too. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • He looks adorable in both styles, but I totally love it a little longer when it looks like Bruce Lee.

Easy Play Dates and Family Dinners With Red Baronยฎ Pizza

This post brought to you by Walmart. All opinions are 100% mine. We love pizza. It’s become one of our go-to meals around here when I’m too busy to cook. It’s also what we often order when the boys have a play date, we have friends over. Lately I’ve been finding myself heading over to […]

  • We actually just served frozen pizzas when we had our church small group over for a meeting at our house one Saturday afternoon. It was a perfect thing to serve for everyone.

  • Love printable coupons AND pizza! In fact, we may have pizza tonight.

  • Our kids always enjoy having pizza nights at home. It’s especially handy for the times when hubs and I like to have a date night in and eat a romantic dinner after they go to bed.

  • I think Red Baron is good for the weekends when my kids are out of school. My youngest loves pizza.

  • We love pizza too. Little Caesar’s has been our go to take out place for busy (or lazy nights) or we make homemade.

  • We have pizza night at least once a week. It’s one food I know both my husband and son will always eat. ๐Ÿ™‚

  • We love Pizza! I can’t wait to have a pizza party when M can actually eat it too – that’s a party own it’s own ๐Ÿ™‚

  • We love red baron pizza and it’s a must have at our house.

  • We love oven pizza, it’s so tasty, decently priced, and great for get togethers.

  • We get Red Baron pizzas for family movie nights. The kids all love it and I’m happy when they all agree on something.

  • This my husband’s favorite pizza.

  • I need to stock up on these for when baby comes & we’re eating from the freezer for a few weeks!

  • This looks so much better than the greasy chain restaurant pizza we had the other day,

  • I kinda have a thing for frozen pizza on Sunday nights (which may have stemmed from sporting events, etc.) but now I do it quite frequently. Red Baron brings back lots of childhood memories!

  • Play dates sound like a good reason or when I don’t feel like cooking!

  • Our family is a big fan of pizza but I don’t know we’ve ever purchased this brand before. Looks good!

  • I don’t know if we’ve ever tried Red Baron. Those look really good, though. Maybe I’ll pick some of these up for impromptu guest visits!

  • We’ll definitely take advantage of the savings. Sometimes all the kids want to eat is pizza.

  • Red Baron pizzas certainly do make impromptu get-togethers so much easier.

  • Red Baron is great for a quick and easy dinner night.

  • We just stocked up on 8 red baron pizzas for superbowl sunday!

Last month I made some great appetizers for our holiday dinner with Cooper deli cheese, a baked bean casserole and Bite Sized Loaded Double Baked Potatoes. They were a hit, and I loved them so much that I’m now a lifelong fan […]

  • My family is not big into chili, but this one they would probably gobble down. The white cheese and chicken would make it far more palatable to them than the spicier beef kinds that are often made.

  • I don’t think I’ve heard of them but I love the idea of honoring the veterans and your dish looks yummy.

  • The chili with nachos look especially yummy! This is a great recipe for the colder days!

  • This sounds really good. I’ve never made chicken chili before.

  • That looks delicious. I would eat it with the tortilla chips. Yum!

  • This looks like a great recipe and looks like it is full of flavor!! Thanks for sharing it!

  • This looks yummy. Of course, I’m a cheese fiend!

  • It’s hard to find real American cheese that isn’t “pasteurized process cheese food.” This looks divine!

  • I LOVE a white cheese and pepper jack is my favorite for sure! I can’t believe I’ve never heard of that brand before though.

  • Oh my goodness that looks so good, Penelope. And I’d love to try the cracked black pepper cheese. Yum!

  • Chicken chili sounds good. I’ve only had beef chili!

  • Chicken chili is the best! We all serve with crushed tortilla chips, yummy stuff.

  • I love chicken chili! Yours looks delicious.

  • Fantastic comfort food! I love that you used chicken in it too.

  • That chilli looks really good and I love the fact that it has chicken in it, yum!

  • I love chicken chili so I will have to try my hand making this.

  • Oooh that gooey cheese looks fantastic. I love chicken chili as a healthy alternative to beef versions!

  • This sounds so good. I’ll have to make it for the family soon. Thanks.

  • We LOVE chili… it’s a go-to meal for us.

  • That sounds delicious! My husband & I would both love that, especially with the peppers & onions. Yum!

  • I haven’t made chicken chili in forever. I love all that cheesy goodness on top.

  • I’m making chicken chilli right now and I’m using most of the ingredients above, can’t wait to see how it turns out.

  • I adore… ADORE … chicken chili. This sounds SO good.

  • A white chicken chili would be a great addition to my meal planning recipe list. I know it’d go over well with my entire family, especially since it’s cheesy!
