all smiles...

so the next few posts are just meant to catch everybody (cathy) up. things are going quite well. bauer continues to be a sweet and mild mannered baby. on tuesday he gave us the most beautiful gift...A SMILE!! it still amazes me at what an overwhelming and warm feeling can fill a parent's heart at such a small gesture. i even managed to catch one of these toothless beauties on camera (when i stopped crying of course)!!

but after all with a sister like vivian....who would expect anything less than the most captivating smile ever? ;)
