Not at all.
The curly-hair gene is dominant, meaning only one of the two genes for hair curl has to be set to "on" to give you curly hair. For the heck of it, C is curly hair and c is straight hair.
If you are Cc (one curly gene, one straight) and your partner is Cc, you have a 25-percent chance of producing a straight-haired kid: the child could be CC, Cc with the C gene from you, Cc with the C gene from your partner or cc. And in this case, the child is cc. So yeah, you and your partner definitely could have produced a straight-haired child.

What is the probability of a women with blue eyes and straight hair with a man with brown eyes and curly hair of having a kid with blue eyes and straight hair?
This depends on the alleles that each parent carries. The woman is homozygous recessive for both eye and hair traits (I have to write a disclaimer here as eye color inheritance is not this straight forward, but we will assume that it is for this example). If the father is heterozygous for eye color 50% of the children will have blue eyes. If the father is homozygous for brown eye color all children will be brown eyed. So, if B represents the allele for brown eyes and b represents the allele for blue eyes and C is for curly hair and c is for straight hair (another disclaimer here as this is another trait that is not so straight forward). Father BbCc Mother bbcc 25% Curly hair Blue eyes 25% Straight hair Blue eyes 25% Curly hair Brown eyes 25% Straight hair Brown eyes Father BBCC Mother bbcc all children will have Curly hair and brown eyes Father BbCC Mother bbcc 50% Curly hair Brown eyes 50% Curly hair Blue eyes Father BBCc 50% Brown eyes Curly hair 50% Brown eyes Straight hair
