Our lil red

Now where on earth did Noah's red hair come from? Well, my entire pregnancy it was a running joke that Mr. B and I would have a red head, dare I say, "ginger." I really thought there was just no way seeing that Mr. B and I are dark haired, dark eyes, olive skinned.. Here is the proof :

Us circa 2007

... but well, it happened. And here is our little red !





So where did it come from? Well there are recessive genes on both sides of our families. Here's some proof.
My side is simple, my mother :



















And well, Mr. B's side is a little more complex. We have lots of aunts with red and blonde hair colors, my father in law is a blonde and my grand mother in law (miss her so so much) to me, was a red, but the verdict is still out on that ! Mr. B has cousins who have red hair and he also has cousins who have red headed kids !

I would still like to think it was my Mom, his great-grandma, who heard my prayers to keep him safe and that she touched his head just before the angels carried him to you but I must admit that the recessive genes got him! But no matter why he is so fair and so "red" he is a beautiful gift for everyone.
And Jonsey I don't even want to go there LOL

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.
