“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.”~Thich Nhat Hanh




My mother, Livia's Grandma Mari, asked for some close up shots of her. These are some that we have to date and we hope that they suffice. At least 2 out of the 3 of them she looks happy....

For all you parents-to-be out there, here's a fact that I only recently learned. Babies don't really smile until a few weeks into their life. This makes sense to some degree...after being pushed out into a strange world I would doubt anyone would smile for a long time. More seriously, I believe it has more to do with the neuro development....but the point is not to take the frowns personally. We're hoping for many more smiles in the weeks ahead!!

Grandma Mari says:

Great pictures. Thank you for the close-ups. She's really adorable. Howie will come down and get the red eye out - I know that for sure.
