E.'s 2-Minute Video Debut.

Today, E. treated us to some more alert, eyes-wide-open moments.  And for once I wanted to capture the little miss on film.  And she so indulged me for about two minutes (warning:  really, this video is probably only interesting to the mama and papa; E. really isn't doing a whole heck of anything!).

And while A. was doing her thing, playing, chatting, I also had a few moments to capture E. demonstrating some of her first smiles.  She's been *smiling* for the last week or so and I wasn't sure if they were true, social smiles.  Turns out, babies' first intended smiles occur somewhere between 4 and 6 weeks.  So, say cheese, E.!

What those little smiles do for a mama, papa, and big sister!  All of us feel like she's paying us special attention when she grins at us.  I could just gaze at her for hours and hours, looking at her happy eyes and grinny-cheeks.
