Traits

Howdy all, it's Dave again.  In the 7th grade science class I've been teaching we just got done with a unit on Genetics.  Teaching about Punnett Squares and how traits are passed on made me curious about what traits Sydney has from Cherilyn and myself.  So far we've heard a wide range of comments from people.  Some say she looks like me.  Some say she looks like Cherilyn.  But I think at this point we are really only sure about one thing.  Sydney has my hair.

Here are a few examples of my hair
As you can see my hair has trouble sitting down

This does make it easier to have a mohawk at Halloween

This isn't at it's longest but I've yet to find the length when it will start to sit down

Even my chin hair sticks straight out

Now here is Sydney's hair


This is right before a bath

You can usually tell when she needs a bath based on how much of her hair you can get to lay flat.

These are post bath pictures


Mimicking Albert Einstein

Just like her pops

  1. We can be thankful she doesn't have Pat's genes for hair.

  2. Annika is jealous, she only really grew hair a few weeks ago! Now she is obsessed with barrettes; she could send you some if you want. We could stand to get rid of a few. Thanks for posting; love the blog. -Kendi
