Silly Faces

I'm not sure if newborns are supposed to be as expressive as Charlotte is...

When she's awake, she will stare at you and just make the cutest faces. Some are serious, some are inquisitive, some are silly. Today, I have just two of the many faces of Ms. Charlotte.

This is her "singing face." For now, she sings silently. Eventually, I'm sure there will be a long, beautiful note that accompanies this face.  Some people may think she's howling...

Do you think she's somewhat annoyed by my camera in her face? 

She slept for 6 hours last night!!! I even changed her and made an attempt at feeding, but she was out cold! She woke up twice for diaper and food for about 40 minutes each, but slept another 2.5 or 3 hour chunks in between! To top it off, she took an incredible 2.5 hour nap this afternoon!! I got to shower, wash dishes, run & fold laundry, clean a couple of rooms, and I even vacuumed the whole house! Ahhh... it's amazing what some good sleep will do for you - and for baby! :o)

That is awesome that she slept so good last night! I hope that she continues sleeping like that, so you and Ben can get some sleep too! Very cute pictures of Miss Charlotte

That's impressive! I remember those long days without sleep! Enjoy every minute you can, and don't forget to nap when she's napping - the laundry can wait! :)
