Blues, browns and blonds

Having one kid with brown hair and brown eyes and another with blond hair and blue eyes is fun. In fact, I love it! But it does cause me to wonder what our third child will be like. Will he/she look like Abby? Or Ben? Or a mixture? It's going to be fun to find out! Abby is definitely hoping for a little sister and since I'm partial to another girl as well, I have said to Abby a couple times, "If the baby is a little sister, I hope she is just like you!" Now, of course, I meant that I hope she is kind, sweet, smart, a good helper and gentle like her big sister, but Abby, of course, took me literally. She responded, "Yes! Brown hair and eyes just like me!" Although I ADORE Abby's big brown eyes and long dark hair, I would be just as happy with a blue-eyed, blond girl too. In fact, if the baby is a girl and takes after Ben's looks, the picture below gives us a good idea of what she might look like. ;o)
