Additional Comments: Wasn't that a much younger Bree in Jessica's arms today? The last time we saw her, she had darker, longer hair and was playing with crayons. Today, short light wispy hair and looked much smaller/younger. Anyone else catch that?

Message: The other Bree had curly reddish hair and didn't look like she would be the child of Nash and Jessica. I thought maybe they were going to have her turn out to be Antonio's after all. Maybe they scrapped that idea and decided on a blonde child who looks more like them.

Message: With kids this little, it's hard to say why they were replaced, or if it's just temporary. Children's roles are usually recurring, and if the usual baby/babies aren't available, tptb usually get a sub. Or the usual baby/babies were getting too hard to handle on set or they were getting too uncomfortable.
But, in Bree's case, it is striking that they obviously de-aged her, so maybe they felt the character was getting too old too fast (which is ironic for a soap opera). Bree had been played by the same twins for at least a year. They were the ones with Nash when he gave Bree a leather jacket at Christmas before last. They were also the ones who were Bree all last summer when Jessica was in the hospital.

Message: Yes, she was definitely de-sorased. But was she de-sorased to Bree's actual age? It seems like it was just last year that Bree was born, or was the whole Antonio/Jessica/Nash triangle so painful that after two years the pain still isn't a vague memory?
