Short Hair and Blue Eyes???

My sister-in-law Aubree gave me a great haircut last week! It's shorter than I've had it in a long time. I'm deathly afraid of going any shorter than this for fear of a "fro" like the one that haunted me as a young teen.





In the picture you may notice that Ada's eyes look really blue. The other day I was feeding her some baby food and the sunlight streaming through the window made her eyes look a beautiful clear blue. But when I took a picture, the flash made the blue look kind of a muddy with brown specks in the middle, which makes me think they are going to turn brown after all. I was hoping we might end up with one beautiful blue eyed babe after five beautiful brown eyed kids. Joe has blue eyes and it would be fun for at least one of our kids to have his eyes. I'm not giving up hope, but the chances seem pretty slim.

No flash= clear blue eyes:




With flash=muddy blue eyes with brown flecks:



What do you all think?

I love your hair. As for the blue eyes you never know Isaac has eyes that are green with a light brwon swirl in them. None of my kids are a dark brown like I am. Also if you notice my Dad is alight brown I am not sure about your dad. Their is hope out there I have two blondes and one very blue eyed child you never know what genes will come through!

I really like your hair that length! I emailed my blog link to you but it was kicked back to me. Teddy Grahams are actually pretty healthy compared to other cookie snacks (I eat the cinnamon ones)
