An Early Christmas

Our little Liliana has been such a wonderful baby; we are so blessed. Recently the poor thing has had lots of bubbles in her belly causing her to be cranky :( apparently from the age of 6-8 weeks a baby is expected to experience gas pains and liliana was no exception. While we are currently on the **warning bad pun ahead**!tail end of this gas issue we have noticed our little one continuing to smile.

About a week or so ago I was convinced she smiled at me and Alex but couldn't be too sure because it was the same look she gave after she passed some of that gas she had stored up. But now that it is happening more frequently and accompanied with coos I know that she is an official smiler :) I believe her first real smile was flashed towards Alex, no real surprise there. Liliana would often get wide eyed and look pleased when Alex was around ( as long as she was gentle). We are so excited that our little girl is beginning to express emotions other than anger or general unhappiness :)

So in honor of Lily, flash a smile today; you're never too old to practice an old trick :)
