day 16: a quick smile

after so much quality time with pops, he's in a great mood and starts smiling when kris begins talking to him.

if you look close, you can see the "whites" of his eyes, which we haven't been able to see before this moment.

	candy says: Wow! I had no idea that babies had such good facial muscles this young. They always dismiss those early smiles as a "reflex" or "gas" but I always thought there is more to it. What a charmer! Posted 50 months ago. ( permalink )
	snowdeal says: i knew some smarty pants was going to come along and give me the "facial muscles" theory, but i had not idea it'd be my own sister. i read somewhere that most of what you think of smiling is actually just a grimmace or gas; but he did it so repeatedly to kris' voice that i'll choose to remember that he was smiling :-) that said, he probably can't see who he's smiling at. his vision is about 20/600 now and won't be 20/20 until 12 months from now ( of course, assuming that his continued to develop normally after birth while they were still fused shut ).

	candy says: what's the facial muscles theory? LOL. I was just amazed that his facial muscles would be so strong to cast such an expression, just like I'm amazed at everything else this little guy can do alread... Whadoiknow... PS- right from day one, Adam would laugh out loud in his sleep. It sounded like a real laugh - as if he remembered a joke. Posted 50 months ago. ( permalink )
