Congratulations, Sara! We've been waiting for your announcement. He's so sweet!
Once we get rid of the flu, I'd like to come meet him. I love holding little babies.

Congratulations!
He is adorable. Those cheeks...

Umf, no, that is "birth hair", and also Finns have dark birth hair. Well, not all, but most. That falls off, and usually white hair grows instead. And then darkens as years go by.

I wonder about this. Everyone said that to me too, but my daughter was born with a full head of hair and it never fell out. She's almost one yr old now and her hair is down to the middle of her back (though it's naturally curly, so you gotta yank on it a bit to see how long it truly is

)
Again, congratulations Sara!!!!

Oh god, cant believe you still have that!
Sami has checked the little guy over several times, even taking well to nappy changing!
My husband and I are both dark harired so I doubt this little guy is going blonde! I was born with long dark hair and it never fell out.
