Smile - Mammaw has the Camera!

Friday - August 7, 2009

Bill and I just returned from a visit up North. We were visiting with David, Jeni, Cora, and Molly. We had a nice visit and were just amazed at how much Cora has grown. She was so alert and really active. She followed her Mommy and Daddy with her eyes when she heard their voice. It was a joy to be able to to hold, cuddle, feed, and rock Cora. She smiled and cooed a lot as well as drooled - we believe she is starting that dreadful period of teething. The pain of those teeth trying to come through - bless her little heart. She is on a schedule of going to bed at 7:00 and sleeping most night until 7:00 the next morning - any parents dream come true, I shoul think! She takes a nap during the morning and the afternoon. She was such a happy baby while we were there - except for when it appeared her teething may have been a painful nuisance! Trying to capture her sweet smile was my goal this past visit - it was tough! She would see the camera and away the grin would go - but I was able to capture the pre-grin and in some instances the full grin!! We may be prejudice, but we think she is the most beautiful baby ever! :):)

Our blue-eyed angel almost ready to smile for Mammaw!

Is that a smile I see? Cora ready for a walk!

Hey Mammaw - I'm a happy girl!!!!!

Granddad trying to soothe a little girl who may be having teething issues! Look at the tears in her eyes! Poor baby!

Hey Granddad, I love you too!
Look Mammaw, I'm practicing for when I start to crawl!!!

"How's this smile Mammaw?"

Just before we left Wed - we finally got a big smile!!!! Look how precious!
