Hair

The baby wasn't born with a lot of hair (despite the old wives tale of pregnancy heartburn = hairy baby and the way I chewed through those Tums all night long) - just a fine dusting of little hairs all over her head.

She's had all hair colours, moving through stages - what little hair she had was quite blonde at first, then it turned darker and grew in to a little mullet. Then it turned a little ginger and the mullet seemingly rubbed off.

Depending on the light, it looks to be all three - most of the time, to me, it looks like a mousy blond. I noticed a little tuft right on the crown of her head this morning, and it looks blonde. But close to her head, it seems brown. And in the sunlight, traces of ginger still.

Over the last month or so, it has really started to thicken out (in comparison to her virtually invisible initial hair, that is). It's growing thicker on the top than the sides, in a big thick line down the top of her head - sort of like a mini Ruby Rose:

How awesome would that be ;o)
