Grandpa as a Baby looking for Coloring

I have been looking through some of these restorations and they are just amazing! I had to find one of my own so I could ask for some coloring.
This is a picture of my grandfather as a baby. I think it would be so much fun to have it colored and give it to my mom as a surprise.
Anybody who wants to have a go at the picture, I would really appreciate it!
I hope I posted it right; it took me awhile to figure it out.
Yes!

Thanks Terry! I should have mentioned it before, but Grandpa had green/hazel eyes. If its a pain to change, blue is just fine!
I really love them, you all are great!

Another for your collection. Are the trees in the background eucalypts by any chance?

Thanks
Morrie
, it’s wonderful and you made a pretty sky too!
I don’t know anything about the trees. The picture was taken in Pennsylvania so I don’t think they are Eucalypts. They would probably freeze their
buds
off there.
Thanks again
wendy
! It was so nice of you to change the eyes for me.
