So I have to tell you all 4 times that I have been pregnant I selfishly prayed for a curly blonde-haired blue-eyed little boy! I knew the chances were pretty good since Jody has blonde hair and blue eyes, Jody's brother has blonde hair and blue eyes and both my brothers have blue eyes and lighter hair (remember back to biology with the dominate/recessive genes?)! Each time God showed me how selfish I was. . .the first pregnancy I got a curly blonde-haired brown-eyed little girl, check 2 off my list. The second pregnancy we lost early on so we don't know?
The third pregnancy I got a straight blonde-haired brown-eyed little girl, check 1. And the fourth pregnancy I got a curly blonde-haired, blue eyed little girl, check 3! Almost, but not quite what I prayed for. If you combine all my requests, I've almost gotten all my selfish requests. . .maybe we'll be lucky enough the next time to at least get a boy. Here are some pictures of our little Lizzy, right after bathtime last night! No one believes me that she has curly hair unless you see her right after bathtime!
I don't give my girls baths every single day (trying to conserve water right?) but every other day, usually at night or early morning, so it's rare people see them
right after they are squeaky clean!
We are hoping her hair will stay light, a real blonde is hard to come by these days! My hair was wavy when I was little and got curlier the older I got. . .hopefully she'll stay my curly blonde-haird girl!! Not that my other two are beautiful in their own ways too!!! I had to put this picture of Emma on here, it really shows her curly hair too! This picture was taken around Easter when she was 2! I believe she had just gotten up from a nap where she was all sweaty, yuk!!!
