Fat and Happy

Is there anything better than a baby's smile?  I think not.  Keep your DQ Blizzards, walking through cool grass barefoot on a spring day, and zomedies (zombie comedy movies.  I just coined that!)  . . . I'd rather have a baby smile any time and Abby is happy to oblige.  She finally started smiling about a week ago and has been a true bundle of joy.  Every morning after her first feeding of the day, Abby will sit back on her Boppy and give a barrage of smiles to every face that greets her.  It doesn't take much, just a simple smile and a cheerful voice and she gives a big goofy grin back.  It's a true sign of love returned.
Even though she looks absolutely adorable in the picture, she actually has a funny progression of smiles.  She starts off by giving a little Corey Haim smile, then stretches it out to her cute full smile, then she gets really excited and goes full Chris Farley with it. When she tucks her chin back and it disappears into her many neck rolls, you can't help but laugh at her.  
Speaking of neck rolls, Abby had her 2 month check up recently and she weighed in at a whopping 14 lbs.  She has almost doubled in size and is now in the 99th percentile for weight.  She's still hanging around in the 50th percentile for height though.  Eli was the same way for the first few months, but he eventually stretched out and slimmed down once he started walking.
