Smiles

A few smiles captured by Baba while she was here this week...enjoy :)

bath time smiles

I've been taking a lot of pictures lately, maybe because Ben has looked cuter? Does that just go without saying :) Enjoy.

Smiles Still Send Me...

The weekend has come to an end and we had a great visit with my sis! Lots accomplished, including tons of cuddling with Ben and his aunt. We managed to squeeze in a little shopping, sushi, and yard work too.

Tonight we will eat our first salad with lettuce from the garden. I picked a mixture of red leaf, arugula, butter, bib, spinach and a few others. So excited to taste it!

Here is to a great week - a little giggle from Ben to start your Monday with a smile. Video being uploaded as well...

Benjamin is having such a cute day. He is SUPER smiley, clean & soft from a big bath and wearing an adorable outfit. I can't stop squeezing him. XOXO

Smiles are really hard to capture with the still camera but this is a good one. My type A self debated posting b/c his shirt is dirty but that is a fact of life I'm slowly learning to deal with :)

Besides, the smile is so cute it would be a crime not to post.

I've interviewed nearly a dozen candidates for the nanny position in the last two days...it is a really hard task. I guess the good news is there have been a couple candidates I'm excited about. I just want to find someone and hire them, so I can enjoy the last few weeks with Ben without having it hang over my head.

Then I can completely focus on him while I am still home. Ugh, this is going to be really hard.

Smiles: Enjoy!

Here it is!!

Laugh Out Loud and Say Cheese!

Ben laughed out loud in his sleep today. I kid you not. He was in my arms and I was looking away when I heard a laugh. I looked down at him and he was giggling in his sleep. Awestruck I continued to stare and a few second later he did it again.

It was simultaneously hilarious and precious.

And later, after waking from a big long nap, he opened his eyes and gave me a big, huge, undeniable SMILE.

Amazing.

If you could bottle the feeling that smile delivers, I promise you the world would be free from discord.

I'm working on documentation. It just isn't the same if you can't see it yourself...I think a genuine, intentional laugh doesn't come until next month...but we'll see. He is an overachiever :)
