Since I'm bored... what physical traits do you hope the baby inherits?

My babay-dadday is tall 6'3" as opposed to my 5 feet. So I hope she gets some sort of height from him. Not as tall as him but maybe 5'4" - 5'6" Somewhere in there.
He has really pretty blue eyes and mine are brown, so I hope she gets those. I know brown is dominant, but his dad had brown and his mom's are blue, and 3 of the 4 brothers got blue, so there is hope.
He also has dimples... I REALLY hope she gets those. They are a dominant feature so it's likely.
And since I'm Italian, I hope she gets his nose. 
So yeah, basically hoping she looks like him.

Re: Since I'm bored... what physical traits do you hope the baby inherits?
I hope she gets H's blue eyes, my curly hair and she'll mostly likely be brunette or red headed which I think will be adorable with blue eyes and curly hair.
Yeah, definitely my hair. He was a tow-head when he was little so I doubt that will happen, but he's got a lighter brown now. Blondish brown when it's shorter.
But his is a wavy floof if he doesn't maintain it well. Mine is mostly straight with a little wave, but I can do anything with it, and it's dark.
From Daddy:
Eye shape and lashes (bastard has the longest eyelashes I've ever seen)
Nose (I am Irish Italian there is no hope for my child if it has my nose)
Lips
If it's a boy let's hope he's as "talented" as his daddy, or the locker room will just be awful.
From me:
My eye color-who doesn't love blues?
My forehead, since you could play football on DH's
Sure, but they are a cute defect! I love his dimples...
I hope she gets DH's thin-ness. haha And I'm about 90% sure she'll have the "naps of death" that run in my side of the family.
I have to say this is a little bit icky to me. A little more than I would want to know about for my kids. I do not want to know if they have sexual skills/talents.
My SS is the a little mini replica of my H. I hope our first looks like me and my side of the family! i hope baby has brown eyes, my hair (its not as straight as his), my build especially if its a girl (he has really wide shoulders and back). my fingers (i was born with one extra pinky its gone now but it would be cool to share that with my baby like i do with my mom and grandpa). My H agrees that he wants a little me running around lets hope that my genes win over his.
From DH:
Nose
Hair color (he was a cute little red-haired child, and it later turned into a reddish brown -- as opposed to me, always boring brown)
From me:
Eye color (I have blue-green hazel)
Skin (We both have a lot of pale European ancestry, but I have a decent amount of Native American mixed in, too, so I'm a little less pasty white naturally)
Other than that, I guess I'm fairly indifferent. We are both short with similar body types. If we have a girl, I hope she gets my hourglass figure; a boy, DH's broad shoulders.
I hope LO gets my hair which I've always love but h's ability to just wash and go with his. Dam hair dries in soft ripples and if he blows it out then it looks really good. Yes H has long hair and i love it.
From DH
I know this is weird, but hands. I have the shortest stubbiest fingers that a manicure won't even make look pretty. But DH's hands are really nice with long fingers, he would have made a great pianist.
Legs (even though the bun in my oven is a girl). He has really nice shapely muscular legs. mine are so scrawny I pretty much have no calves, when I was in ballet, my tights would sag!
I really wouldn't mind any of his facial features, he's a handsome man:).
And his skin. Ours is pretty much the same color, but I have ridiculously sensitive skin that gets red and blotchy:(.
From me
My boobs, they're big and firm (before kids that is).
My eyes and eye color color, green.
My forehead, DH's is a little short.
I'm 5'10 and a half and DH is 6'3. If our kids end up short I'll probably cry. Just a little. I know it's not a big deal, but I'd just like them to be tall too.
Joking! I would never want to know that either. The less I know the better.
from DH his dimples , (we both have them but his are super deep on both sides,) and his eye lashes,
from me , my eye color, they change shades between blue ,green and grey depending on what Iam wearing and mood, my hair color, its easier to dye if lo is a girl, DH has black,
DS has blonde hair and blue eyes ... and we have NO idea where he gets them from ... so I hope this baby inherits those as well.
I hope he/she gets DH's eyesight and my teeth ... a combo of our skin, and his metabolism.

From him:
Complexion (I'm way pasty white)
His body type as he is more physically lean than I am and has a better metabolism.
From me:
Hair color and texture
Feet. I know that sounds strange, but as far as feet go, mine are pretty cute. His, not as much.
I'm hoping from DH:
His olive skin, he's half Korean so this is a huge possibility!
His thick dark hair, super shiny and soft.
His height, at least closer to his 6'3" than my 5'2".
HIs gorgeous perfectly shaped lips.
From me I'm wishing for:
My metabolism, honestly one of the few things I'm glad my dad passed on to me.
My hourglass fugure if it's a girl.
My nose and ears.
My large eyes and large cupid's bow on the lips.

DH wants LO to look just like me, but whats the fun in that?
We're about the same height, so hopefully he/she wont end up short
At LEAST as tall as I am. I've always gotten compliments on my eyes, so that would be fun for them to get. I have super straight hair, DH has a bit of a curl, so not really sure on that (if its a girl, they will hate it no matter what, that always seems to happen)
For some reasons people seem to think my kid will come out with dreads, since my hair is dreaded. While that would be interesting, I'm not sure why they think this :P
From DH-
His amazing intelligence, long eyelashes, easy-going personality, his quirky pinky finger trait (I know LO is going to get it, DH's pinky fingers turn in at the knuckle instead of going up straight- MIL's do this too) which is odd but familiar and comforting to me.
From me-
My really strong work ethic, blond hair, full lips, clear complexion (I had like 2-3 zits during puberty total).
From either of us-
Eyes (DH has greenish-blue, I have blue), height (I am 5 ft 8, DH is 6 ft tall).
