Clover's Hair

Timothy and I pulled out Cowen's baby book last night to see if I remembered correctly that Cowen's hair was the same color as Clover's.  It looked very similar.  However, both Timothy and I think that Clover has a lot more red tints in her hair.  On the other hand, when I cut Cowen's hair, the hair on the floor looks really red so maybe we're imagining that she has more red than he has.  Basically, if you live at this house you have to have some red hair tendencies (unless you are Lady Harriet and then you don't).   There is no question that Cowen's beard--when he grows one--will be red.

If Clover's hair follows Cowen's hair's example then Clover won't go bald but will be white blond by the time she's one.  We'll see.  

 Clover's hair also reminds us of Emeline's baby hair in that it is naturally spiky.  I love that about Clover.  She has attitude on her head but all sweetness in her face.
Here's a three-week picture.  I love her eyes.  And her perfect nose.  And especially her PERFECT rosebud ears.  Oh how I love her ears.  She is such a darling.

As for her sleeping habits--so far Clover appears to be every inch a Young baby.  All she does is sleep.  Periodically she wrinkles up her face like she's less than pleased (like when she gets a bath), but other than that, she is perfectly contented with life.  We are equally content with her.

Hazel says it's silly to talk about her ears without showing them.

Nobody's ears are as cute as Molly's elf ears that stick straight out--ha ha! Especially when you don't post proof. But adorable picture, nonetheless.
