Being a Mom is amazing...it's so challenging and so rewarding all at the same time! I have to admit there are times when Paisley is crying and it's all I can do not to cry myself, it breaks my heart when I can't figure out how to meet her needs. I'm blessed (we're blessed) that she is such a good baby. She rarely fusses, and she always has a reason if she does. We are learning at such a rapid rate how to "read" our little girl. She's full of expressions and smiles all the time (I don't care what anybody says, she smiles!), especially in her sleep! She loves her Daddy and he does just as good of a job of soothing her as I do unless it's food and that doesn't count. We are learning and growing and so is Paisley, it's been quite the ride so far. We've been out and about much more than I'd ever imagined, we had Christmas eve at Jake's Dad's house and 1/2 of Christmas Day and then we went out to Jake's Mom's Boyfriends Ranch the latter part of the day and then back to her house after that all the way through 1/2 of Monday! We've just gotten settled in and now tomorrow evening Marsha and Fam will be arriving and we'll be headed back to Grants Pass (Marsha is allergic to cats so we don't want her to have to stay here to many nights in a row).
Here is a picture of Paisley taken when she was 4 days old....she's in the Christmas dress Uncle Tyler Grannis bought her. She is smiling, I swear, see for yourself!
Happy Merry Christmas and New Year from the 3 of us!

she's gorgeous, heather! and, YES, that is definitely a SMILE!! taryn smiled early, too and it drove me nuts when people insisted it was just gas and not because she was genuinely feeling happy, or content, or silly, or any other emotion that "experts" say babies don't feel at that age. i say, poo-poo on them. those baby smiles melt a momma every time!
I agree. They do smile early. And you caught it! I have one of Hunter smiling at 2 weeks. It's my proof :). Way to catch it on camera. She already is looking so much older! She is just beautiful, Heather. Good job!
Looks like a smile to me. She's adorable. I'm so happy for you!
