Perfect. Just perfect. This could possibly be my favorite photo I’ve ever taken. I love it so much I want to enlarge it as large as I can and hang it on every wall in my house. It’s so timeless and sweet.
Even better, it’s my family.
I’ll tell you what no one told me about falling in love with your baby, or maybe they did and I just wasn’t listening: it feels so much like falling in love in general: the butterflies, the excitement to see them, the emptiness you feel when you’re away from them, all of it (except the romance part of course cuz that’s just creepy). I just am falling deeper and deeper in love with this kid, I can’t believe it.
Classic raspberries on the belly. What dad hasn’t done this to their child? I tend to just kiss her belly.
This is her trademark position. She loves putting her arms above her head, preferably her left, when she’s lying down, sleeping, breastfeeding, getting a diaper change, pretty much all the time.
Check out those arms rolls! She just keeps getting more and more. It’s great.
This photo was way more difficult to get than it looks. Turk doesn’t tend to play tug-o-war with me because I trained him to drop his rope for me instead, so to get him to hold on for this shot while trying to get a sharp photo with the focus where I wanted it was a bit of a challenge. I like how it turned out though.
I love these pajamas with the blue teddy bears. You may be thinking to yourself, it looks like she bought those in the boys’ department, and to that I would say, so what if I did. The teddy bears were just too cute, I couldn’t resist. Besides, sociologically you’re not supposed to steer your children towards gender colors and toys. I’m just trying to be sociologically correct. So there.
She’s 11 weeks old now but has already grown out of most of her 3 month old clothes. I can’t believe holding up her 3 – 6 month clothes that she can fit in them already, but she does. It’s fun, but sad at the same time. She’s just growing up too fast.

Normally I try to think up something whitty or saracastic, but this post just made me say ‘awwww….’ then of course I switched my browser to ESPN to regain all lost man points.
Too cute… those pics are perfect.
I too think that first photo is fabulous–she is absolutely darling!! Love those big blue eyes as well.
She has gorgeous eyes!
