I have the same problem. I’ve also noticed that in-game photos, specifically the family portrait, show the babies with dark skin, even though both parents have light skin.

Yeah it’s a known issue with the household icons and gallery pictures only! Reminder to hit XP so we get more exposure and potentially priority for them to fix it

I get black baby icons too but idk what the big fuzz is all about, it's hardly game breaking, beside they are not babies for long, to bother caring about it anyway.
