A redhead?

In my previous 'update' post, I forgot to mention that over the last couple weeks, we've noticed Brenna's hair turning red! Now, at birth, Brooke's hair was black. It fell out at about 3 mos and grew back in blonde blonde blonde. Just like me as a kid. Mine stayed blonde till high school ish when it started getting that dirty blonde color. Stayed like that till I got pregnant and with each pregnancy it got darker to where I'm at now - dark brown. No fun. :( Anyway, Brooke's is already darekened up some, having that dirty blonde look. Soooo.....Brenna was born with dark brown hair with some lighter brown ends. Now those ends have changed to a reddish tint. So is this a step between light brown and blonde or will she be a redhead? Only person in either family with red hair that I'm aware of is Brad's grandmother. Brad was also a blonde. So could it have travelled that far in the line of genes? Maybe that would explain some of her 'high spiritedness'??? :D

Check out theses pics and see if you can see the red. Just on the ends (you can kinda tell on her 'sideburns'....for lack of a better word). But it is definitely noticeable to us in the sun. You should be able to click on each picture to blow it up and get a better look.
