Getting ideas

I think for most people, you wonder what your future child will look like. Before I was pregnant I would do fun internet sites that would combine mine and Nathan's faces to see what are children could possibly look like. Some turned out not so cute, some ok. Today I really got thinking what our little man could possibly look like. So I looked through family pictures. Below is my double cousin Jamie's/bff (our dad's are brothers, and our mom's are sisters) little boy, Brigham. Oh, I love this little guy. Now one thing I know for sure is that our baby will have cheeks, no doubt about it. Brigham for sure looks like my side of the family. I was born bald, so here is a thought. (don't you just want to kiss those cheeks?!)

This baby below is Nathan's sister Kristi's little boy, Crew. Also love him. His smile lights up my day. Nathan's baby pictures look so similiar to him. When he smiles I see Nathan. (also just want to kiss those cheeks!)

I saved this one for last because to me, and to lots of other people in our family this boy looks like a spitting image of a little Nathan. This is Nathan's brother Dave's little boy, Reeve. He is such a cute boy, and everyone just loves this kid. I can see our little boy as a toddler looking similiar to him.

But there could be a little twist. I posted pictures of our nephews that have close to mine and Nathan's coloring. Blue eyes, light skin, light hair. But my parents both have dark hair, darker eyes, (you can't tell on my dad, he went gray at an early stage of his life raising us five girls, but he once had dark hair) My mom has greenish-brownish eyes, my dad's are dark brown. I got my blue eyes and lighter skin from my grandpa. So genetics seem to bounce around. My baby could come out looking nothing or very similiar to us. My mom always thought with me and my older sister that we would come out with lots of dark hair, but nope, bald as can be, with blue eyes. I think she wondered if we were really theirs at first. :) So the waiting game continues until we can kiss those cute cheeks! I can't wait!!!!

p.s. I can't believe we're almost in the middle of April! I love how fast time is flying.
