anyone know anything about genetics and heredity?

Okay so I don't know a lot when it comes to heredity or genetics, just some simple stuff I learned in high school that I can't remember anymore!

I'm trying to figure out the likelyhood of our baby boys eye and hair color...

My husband has brown eyes, mine are hazel with much more green in them. His father and sister have blu eyes, my mom and sister have blue eyes as well... are we destined for a brown eyed boy?

Also, when I was born I had medium blonde hair that would get really blonde during the summer... then in middle school it started growing out darker and I currently have dark brown hair! My husband has medium brown hair but was also born more blonde as well... any ideas in regards to hair color??

I'm assuming it is a total toss up and just decided by luck and biology in the womb who's nose, mouth or eyes he will get... or is there something to that as well???

Thanks so much for your time!

My ex husband has dark brown eyes, I have medium brown eyes, he was born and still has black curly hair, I was born with WHITE straight hair and it slowly turned dark blonde. Our son was born with black straight hair and dark brown eyes, he is two and.now has my dark blonde hair but its curly and has my medium brown eyes.Oh and his mom has.blue eyes and so do both of her parents, his dad has brown eyes and his mom has brown eyes while his dad has blue. My mom has hazel eyes and all of her siblings have blue so did both her parents, and my dad had green eyes (IDK anything about his family).
My second sons sperm donor has blue eyes, so did his mom and dad, and he had blonde hair, my son has my color eyes but they turn hazel and sometimes green and he had red hair for awhile (his sperm donors dad had red hair) but its now super blonde.

Nothing is for sure but brown eyes an hair are dominant jeans they pass easily ..blue eyes are the least likely color to pass to children although it happens all the time...its gonna be a surprise when baby is born :) an remember babies eyes change color too ..my daughter was born with blue/slate grey an turned brown a few months later ..I was hoping my childeren would inherit my mother in laws green eyes (she's darker skinned African American an Indian) so they look pretty intense ..hoped this helped ...Congrats !!
