In the looking glass

So, my friend Sarah hinted today that I needed to update my blog. Well, not necessarily hinted as much as just told me that I need to update cause she's been checking it a lot lately. Ok Sarah, this is for you.

I've been thinking a lot about what my little boy is going to look like. I have a slight idea of what he might look like, but it can really go just about any direction. I can't believe my due date is in only 10 days, which basically means he could come at any time. Wow, how utterly and totally surreal. But, back to my original thought ... what he will look like.

I've posted pictures of both BSC and I on this blog before. So for those of you who we have never met in person, you can still feel free to participate. I want to know what (or who) you think he's going to look like. Hair color, eye color, eventual height, weight, etc. Obviously the winner will not be determined for 18 years, but some of his features will be quite apparent after he's born. SO, I want to know what you think. Who will he take after, or will he not look like either of us making BSC suspicious that I had an affair with the mail man? Will his hair be curly or straight? Will he have my weird club toes or BSC's finger toes? Will he take after my side and be super-tall, or will BSC's shorter genes win out making him fit right in with my sister's clan?

I would like to know what you think. Feel free to add personality traits as well, even though we all know that BSC's influence is already very forthcoming in this child.

I think he'll be beautiful! I still remember the picture you sent with your wedding invitations - you and Brandon both looked amazing. You're so good together! So surely if you can take great pictures, you can make great babies. Right?

He will definitely have red hair! You should have people guess how big he will be when he is born. I will say 8 lbs 3 ozs. And I think he will resemble Brandon more than you.

I say he will be tall with curly hair. Muscular build, your toes, a sense of style, but not enough to be a metro. He'll play football, but he won't be a lineman because he'll have your agility. Hmm, your kid is going to be a hottie!
Maybe you'll have Emily or Jenny for a daughter-in-law someday!

Wait - I take that back. It won't be Emily or Jenny - they'll give up rather than marry a man that much young. But Brittany sure would!

he'll have your sense of style, bsc's love for sports, his sense of humor, and I promise...

he will look funny when he's born. but don't worry, that all changes within a day or two!
