It was a little dark but I cranked up the brightness on my monitor and that helped. They both seem to be taking it all in stride. I like babies with a little hair. All of my kids and most of my grand kids were bald as an onion, and some didn't have noticable hair until they were a year old.

I have shown pics of me as a child to our son and asked him who it is. When he says "Me" (meaning himself) it is fun watching the expressions of disbelief when we tell him it is "Daddy".
