Five months have flown by. E.C. rolls from his stomach to his back with increasing frequency. The lumps in his mouth have increased in a staggering number. He persistently refuses every pacifer ever created in favor of chewing on the fingers of both hands. He laughs and coos when you tickle his chin, his elbows, and his knees. Startled at all loud noises, he has suddenly developed a fondness for Ian Tyson’s quiet old cowboy songs.

Babies have the most amazing and expressive faces.

I see you Mom.

Maybe I’ll smile for you.

Ok, Mom you make me happy.

Those first smiles warm the heart and make the face split wide open with happiness. Going on 2 1/2 months, E.C. has very recently graced us with his wonderous upturned lips. Due to their rarity, Mom finds herself running for the camera to late. I snapped this one in the crib. E.C. adores his mobile. The light is terrible. Hence a few Photo Shop layers which have turned the image a tad yellow.  I think of it as vintage.
