SMILES!!! (And other stuff...)

The time has come! The time I have been looking forward to since we first learned we were pregnant! Our little nut is smiling!! OMGosh-it is THE cutest thing....EVER. (Well, until she starts giggling...in which case, THAT will be the cutest thing ever.) At this point it takes some work to get her to smile-but it's worth it. We've found that her Mimi, (My mom) seems to be able to get her to smile faster than anyone else. (Go figure.) Yesterday Rick was in San Diego meeting with the Chargers, so Bella and I had our first day totally home alone. It started out a little rough...but towards the afternoon, she was all....smiles. =) Like I said, it takes some work...so work I did.....and sat there with the camera for what felt like an hour, just waiting to capture at least one smile. And as you will see below...SUCCESS!!






And a few more cute pictures...just for good measure.

  1. I love the sacked out photo all stretched out! And the smiling pics were worth it! ARORABLE!!! She is so sweet! Need to get them together again and they can smile at each other! Avery seems to smile most at other young ones :)

  2. Kyleigh's Mimi was the only one that could really get her to smile consistently also! What is it with grandmas? Maybe the girls know that they need to butter them up from the get go!? That smile you caught on camera is AMAZING and totally worth it! I remember sitting with the camera trying to get a smile and it was so hard and took forever! Way to go..and nice job on the patience end of things!
