Ree Drummond’s granddaughter, Sofia, is growing up fast—and fans can’t get over how much she’s starting to look like her mom! Alex, the Pioneer Woman’s daughter, recently shared a sweet update on Instagram teasing that baby Sofia’s hair is starting to change in the most precious way. And when you see a throwback photo of Alex from around the same age, you’ll understand why everyone is swooning. Find out more below!

Sofia’s curls are coming in—and they’re adorable

Baby Sofia is getting bigger every day, and now fans are getting a glimpse of how much she’s starting to look like her mom! This week, Alex posted an Instagram story showcasing the cutie’s curls that are starting to come in.

“Like we are in full mullet mode [right now] LOL,” she wrote in the caption. “But I’m excited to see how pretty they get the more it grows!”

But that’s not the only thing that makes Sofia’s distinctive curls so adorable. As it turns out, Alex had her own gorgeous ringlets as a toddler. Right after the photos of Sofia, she shared a throwback photo of herself—and the two could be twins!

“If you’re wondering where she gets the curls, this was me at age 2,” Alex wrote alongside two laughing emojis. “Sadly I put too much heat on my hair and it’s just kinda frizzy now vs. pretty curls. I need to start doing a curl routine!!!”

It seems little Sofia could be on her way to sporting some Shirley Temple-style curls in no time.

The resemblance goes beyond their curls

Alex has long been sharing throwback photos on her Instagram account, and it’s precious to see how much she and her daughter look alike—even before their curls came in.

In 2013, Ree’s daughter posted a throwback Thursday image from 1998 that she captioned, “I guess my mom thought it was cute to dress me like a nun.” In the adorable memory, little Alex is giving a half smile to the camera while sporting a velvet blue dress and a white blouse with a Peter Pan collar underneath.

Here’s why that’s especially sweet: Sofia has been spotted wearing similar vintage-inspired pieces, including a lovely pink top with a Peter Pan collar in her 10-month update photo.

Talk about a cute coincidence!

Baby number two is on the way

Alex and her husband Mauricio announced in March that they were expecting their second child, then revealed a few weeks later that this one will be a boy!

Now fans are anxiously waiting for the arrival of the newest family member and to see who baby number two resembles the most. If it’s Alex, Baby Boy could end up twinning both his mom and big sister with curly hair!
