Yay for redheads

Today, The Biscuit is 3 months old. Wow. Where does the time go? In some ways it seems like there is no way he could be that old already. In other ways it seems like he has been here forever.


He has discovered his fingers. He really likes to suck on them. He also discovered toys. He loves to have his little toys swinging overhead. He bats at them with his hands & his feet. So cute to watch .



The coolest thing about The Biscuit so far? Aside from everything I mean . The Biscuit.....is a red head! You can just see the reddish tinge in the pics here.



He is carrying on a family tradition. His great grandma is a red head. Her grandpa was a redhead. Her daddy was a redhead. She is a redhead. One of my husbands cousins is a strawberry blonde. And now The Biscuit. One in every generation. How cool is that?


Grandma was worried that he would be teased. She pointed out that kids at school are so cruel. I pointed out that he will be homeschooled, so she doesn't have to worry about that ! She's worried that he will  be called "Red". Nothing wrong with that. We may even start calling him that instead of "The Biscuit".


I am so excited to have a little red head. And when you are that cute, what does hair color matter anyway?


Blessings.

  2. We too, have one redhead, every generation. I am the one in mine and had to wait for my 6th grandbaby to get one in his generation. I am strawberry-blonde, he is auburn/strawberry. It is beautiful. He is now in first grade and is the only little redhead and gets no teasing at all. In fact, all the little girls chase him around, telling him how cute he is (HE IS).... Tell Grandma not to worry. Your little bisquit is adorable. We redheads are tougher stock, any way and we can take t. Actually, science says that there are fewer and fewer redheads and eventually there will be none. Treasure him..... You have been blessed
