Ah, growing up with your siblings. We bet you have piles of photo albums lying around your parents’ house, documenting your best childhood adventures, awkward stages, silly antics, and weird facial expressions. Recreating those moments is not only a perfect nostalgic gift for your loved ones, but it also allows you to act like a worry-free child once again. Below is a collection of entertaining before and after photos of children vs their adult selves, decades later.
Laundry Nostalgia
Childhood is the best part of life, and there’s no one who can deny the ease and simplicity of being a worry-free youth. What’s funny is most of us don’t realize how easy we once had it until we look back on nostalgic moments of our younger years.
Here are some entertaining before and after photos of children and their adult selves, decades later. By the looks of this snap, Jane’s laundry obsession began before she was out of diapers.
Bath Time Madness
Taking a bath with our siblings was always a fun time, filled with infinite soap bubbles and water splashed all over the bathroom floor. Unfortunately, most of us were too innocent to realize that mom was documenting every shameful moment, later to be used as a form of family-blackmail.
These wild brothers have a great sense of humor and instead of shredding this embarrassing photo to pieces, they made an adorable parody instead. They may have outgrown the tub, but they’re still the same adventurous boys they were 21 years ago…
Forever Petty
Some people’s petty side only starts to come out during their teenage years, but we’re pretty sure Miranda knew she was a straight up baller from the moment she exited her mother’s womb.
Nothing says I don’t give an “F” more than a flick of the middle finger and a shot of whiskey to top it off. At 6 years old, she was the gangster of the neighborhood and as you can see, nothing has changed since then. Here’s to not giving a darn!
Throwback Onesie
Raising a nutjob like Joey wasn’t an easy job for his parents. Although the star of this photo received two degrees from a couple of prestigious universities and became a respected lawyer, he has always stayed true to his wacky and wild self.
In honor of his 29th birthday, Joey climbed into a white onesie and created a collage of him at 7 years old and him twenty years later. We don’t know if we should laugh or cry…
Bodyless Heads
A family beach day is no fun if you don’t spend hours creating sand castles that will, in time, be washed off the shore. When building temporary kingdoms by the sea becomes boring, you can always resort to burying yourself in a coffin of sand and startling people passing by with your bodyless head.
We all need a partner in crime to get the trick done and Sofia and Brian were always a great prankster duo. Ten years later, the mischievous siblings dug another hole in the sand and relived their epic days of being buried in the grains.
Little? Not For Long…
Once upon a time, tiny Tommy, in the red striped shirt, would tell his bigger brothers to pick on someone their own size. 35 years and ten shirt sizes later, the small boy evolved into a strong mature man, eventually outgrowing his two older siblings.
Age may just be a number, but height and weight matter. Nowadays, tiny Tommy hovers almost a head over his oldest brother, outweighs him by 40 pounds, and can easily beat the crap out of both of them.
