DH has green eyes and my kids have the most amazing large vibrant blue eyes (big like his--mine are tiny ) with thick , long eyelashes.



+1. This describes my kid and me, too, except I have the long eyelashes as well.

Duh. This is why men are fascinated with boobs.


A penis doesn't fascinate me. I mean . . . I don't feel like staring at it all day.

So basically these light-eyed, dark-haired babies are wearing black eyeliner. I did a doubletake (and tried to sneak a photo) every time I saw that. Anyway, the NG girl isn't out of the ordinary in her coloring. It was a gorgeous photo, though.

Such light colored eyes are extremely common in Afghanistan, northern Pakistan, even Northern India
