I didn't want to spam... but here's a cute one of me and DH with Rhyko, too!

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

I love that picture of you guys! What a beautiful family!!!
I hate my nose too. It's got that hump in the middle of the bridge. If I were vain enough I'd get it taken care of. I care more about my saggy boobs. LOL

Luna - It's not spaming, post as many photos as you want!  :)

I swear my kids look freakishly alike.  Here is a picture of Coralie and a pic of DD1 when she was an infant.  Could be the same baby, right?

Coralie at 3 weeks..

Olivine at 4 weeks..

Wow Abra!  They have very blue eyes from the start eh?  My boys had grey as newbies, and O's turned blue and we're not yet sure about D's.

[Abraisme]

Yes, their eyes are blue and guaranteed to stay that way.  My DH and I both have very blue eyes.  Olivine's eyes didn't really change much from birth..  Below is a picture of her when she's 8mo.

very cool.  DH and I both want D to have our respective eye color- mine are brown, his are blue.  We'll see who "wins" lol!

The only thing my DH and I get to debate is skin tone.  I'm thinking that Coralie might have my DH's skin tone (pink and super blond), where Olivine has my skin tone and will probably have my darker blond hair.  Not that it's all that different.  We're pretty much debating shades of blond.  Ha ha.

Really, both girls look just like their daddy.  Here is a side-by-side of Olivine and my DH as babies.  They also look freakishly alike..

[Jaimee]

Well, you know that babies are supposed to look like daddy from birth so that he knows that they are his offspring and he should take care of them.  Evolutionarily speaking of course... 

[Abraisme]

Phew!  I'm glad that worked out for us!  I mean, he probably wouldn't have wanted to take care of them if they came out with black hair (pretty much proving that they aren't his)...  Ha ha.  ;)

DH joked that if DS1 weren't born at home, he'd have thought he was switched at the hospital. He called him the mailman's baby for months, joking around. DH has red hair and brown eyes - DD looks just like him with blue eyes, DS1 is blonde and not as fair (but he does have brown eyes). So far DS2 has brown hair like me and I think his eyes may stay blue. All 3 of the kids look completely different, lol.

[IwannaBanRN]

He loves sleeping on his tummy. Of course, I only allow this when I'm up and around and can monitor him closely and not when he's in bed with me.

[Abraisme]

It sounds like you guys have more opportunity for genetic variety.  My DH and I are both blond haired (he's really blond) with blue eyes.  It would be very odd if we had a dark haired baby, like almost impossible.  :)

I said the same thing about this baby.  No way would I believe he was mine if I had not held him his whole first week.  My mom is a red head, dad is blond.  Brother and I started blond and grew up brown.  Both boys had blond donors and were born with long dark hair.  DD had a brunet donor and came out with blond peach fuzz.  The coming baby should have black hair.  Anything else would surprise me.

The only color I really expected with my older kids was red hair, since DH has red hair. DS1 came out with jet black hair, and now has kinda light brown hair. DD has red hair, like daddy and Levi's dad has almost black hair. I didn't expect him to come out with almost blonde-reddish hair. It made me wonder, since I conceived only a few weeks after leaving DH.

[Jaimee]

Hair color is definitely interesting.  Dh and I both have quite dark brown hair, but our older two children came out with blonde hair.  It appears to be turning darker as they age and I assume they'll both have dark brown hair by the time they hit puberty, but who knows!

Awww! Becky, wouldn't that be something if it ended up Levi was really biologically Billy's boy?? Do you think you'll ever get a paternity test? Is Levi's biological father in the picture at all?

Seraf, such a beautiful peaceful baby!!

Do you know everyone's blood type?  You might get a clue there.  Otherwise, if you know for sure you conceived (ovulated) weeks after you had last been with your dh then that's not possible.

I don't know when I ovulated because I was on the birth control patch. I wish I knew everyone's bloodtype. I don't even know Levi's.

Well, that definitely leaves the door open for possibilities then!  Would your dh be interested in getting a paternity test?  You can type blood using an Eldon card (which you can purchase on Amazon) for $12 if you're curious.

The last time DH and I had been intimate was January 21st and I supposedly(according to ultrasound) conceived on February 14th. I'm actually not sure if he'd want to do a paternity test. We were visiting the subject yet again the other day and he said "Well, we don't know for sure that he's not mine yet." I'm SUPER curious. So, I think I'm going to use $12 that we have extra. I will be on cloud nine FOREVER if he's Billy's and not Ray's. I hate thinking that he's most likely Ray's. That means he'll have to be involved if he so chooses, to some degree. I don't want to see his face ever again.
