Awkward-looking Toddlers?

[jothirteen]

I went and packaged my main legacy house from Randomville to get a copy of it in another (expendable) 'hood so that I could age the gen O twins to toddlers there. I needed to extract them for the ATOR Advent Calendar project I've been doing this month, and I can't play their original household in Randomville until they become toddlers - I've already played too far ahead as it is.
The thing is...well, I just feel bad for thinking this about these poor sims, but they look so...awkward compared to what other Randoms looked like at this age. I wonder if their parents' features just happened to mix in unfortunate ways with these two, and/or if it's just them looking worse in comparison to the usually very good-looking Randoms, and/or if it's just a temporary thing and they'll look better as they age.
Right now, it's a bit too late for me to get them aged up quickly in BodyShop to see what they'd look like as adults (I'll do that tomorrow).
So - this is what they looked like in BodyShop after I'd given them hairstyles, eyebrows and clothes I approved of. Do you think I'm being too harsh with the poor sim toddlers and that they'll just grow into it?



As a (minor?) point of comparison, this was what their father looked like as a toddler (sorry the pics aren't better, those were all I could find).

I know basing anything on what sims look like as toddlers is always a tricky business...but like I said to Jo above, I've been marrying simselves in every generation and the sims have turned out quite attractive (considering some simselves have very modified features that could mix oddly with the ones already in the gene pool). I guess I was just super lucky to have 14 generations of sims without any sort of major awkwardness at any life stage!
Aww, I'd never dislike these poor little Randoms because of their looks, I always get attached to most of them (the very few ones I didn't like that much were sims that got on my nerves constantly, nothing to do with looks whatsoever). :) I even mentioned I felt bad in the first place for thinking this about them.
I'll try to age them up in BodyShop and post pictures here on LJ as soon as I can (and pictures of their parents as well, as Jo suggested). That should be interesting.
