happy baby

I'm crazy about this kid. She's such a good baby, she rarely fusses and she rewards my one-on-one attention with huge smiles. I love talking to her and her eyes engage me as if hanging on my every word. She stares with huge, brilliantly blue eyes, framed by long lashes and radiating her innocence and perfection.

Our favorite time of day to chat is at nighttime, after the big girls have gone to bed. She lays on the bed with me and I talk to her with over-animated expressions and excitement in my voice. She beams and grins and occasionally her whole face lights up with a huge, open mouth smile, deep dimples and sparkling eyes. She is so beautiful!

Her eyes remind me of Butterfly, that same heavenly color (just like daddy) and sparkling excitement. Her smile reminds me of Ladybug. Ladybug was typically solemn face, earning the nickname "Stone Face Baby", but when she smiled, her whole face lit up.

I still love watching their faces, especially when discovering something new or when absorbed in their play. Butterfly's round face is charming, engaging and friendly. She's beautiful and cute and sassy with almost more personality than I can handle. Ladybug's face is more delicate and stunningly beautiful. Her big eyes change colors as often as her mood but are framed by long, thick eyelashes (yes, I'm jealous). Her personality can only be described as impish. She's sneaky and mischievous and it's made worse because who would suspect such a delicate beauty to be such a pill?
