To those affected by a heart defect:

A Baby of Many Colors

March 28, 2007 at 6:56 am by Uncle Justin

Many have inquired as to the true colors of Haven. I thought it wise to clear the air once and for all so that you all know what crayon to use on your pictures of her.

For the final say, Mom & Dad will have to comment on this later, but as to my multiple trips down to the ICU and having seen her cute little eyes in person here is my description:

Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Cheeks: Chubby pink

Some of the pictures make Haven look as if she has red hair and brown eyes. This is because the hospital room is dark when the pictures are taken. When I lighten them up so that you can see her better I lose some of the color in her eyes and the pinkish skin shines through her brown hair making it look red.

If you look closely at the latest picture of Haven sitting up it looks like she has red eyes. In reality she has blue eyes. I will try to fix this later.

Thank you Sierra, for finally pointing out the white elephant in the room…
(No, that isn’t a joke about Haven)

    Thank you so much Justin for the info. I haven’t seen the beautiful girl in person yet. I hope when she is out of the ICU, I can go down and visit. But the blue eyes and brown hair definately makes since. Just like mommy and daddy!
