Messy Hair

Carter has had some crazy hair lately. It's still not very thick, but some sections are getting a little long. He's also got a little curl / frizz so it can stick out pretty far sometimes. He often wakes up from a nap or in the morning with it going in all different directions.


Also, it amazes me how many strangers comment on Carter's red hair. We can't make it through an entire store without someone making the comment, "Look at that red hair!" How do you respond to that? "Yep" or "Thanks"? A lot of people also ask where he gets his red hair from. I usually explain that some of Brian's cousins have red hair and so did one of my grandmothers but it's starting to get old and I'm soon just going to answer "I don't know". Some people ask if my husband has red hair and seem surprised when I tell them he doesn't. I'm pretty sure red hair is based on recessive genes so they probably shouldn't be so shocked.

We're really curious if the next baby will also have red hair!
