Our sons look so much alike when they were little that we had to look at the furniture in pictures to figure out which kid it was. They are 4 years apart.
Personality wise they couldn't be more different.

Awesome haircut! I don't think they allow such haircuts at our school. The local public school policy lists as unacceptable hair "which may cause disruption to the school environment" -- clearly open-ended there, eh?

My kids actually attend Catholic school, where the policy is, in my opinion, poorly stated:

"Girls' hair is to be worn in a non-distracting style in the natural color." It continues by listing rules about what hair accessories may be used. Then, there is a separate entry for "Boys' hair should not exceed the top of the eyebrow in front, mid ear or the top of the uniform shirt collar." So I guess it's OK for boys' hair to be in a distracting style. :-)
