Smile, you're on candid camera!

Wilson smiled! Clara and Wilson have each smiled inadvertently, but Wilson just starting smiling at us in response to us smiling at him. The first time he did it we acted like he had just won a gold medal in the Olympics, saved children from a burning school, and developed a cure for cancer. We finally understood the "proud parent" thing because we truly felt like it was the first time a baby ever smiled at someone. However, we tried not to be too excited because we recognized the possibility Wilson's reaction might have been coincidence (or gas). But he thrilled us again by smiling in response to our smiling at him the past two mornings. We haven't been able to capture it on camera, so below is a picture of the next best thing.





And of course, we can't leave Miss Clara out of the fun. Clara is doing really well, but she hasn't quite caught up with Wilson . . . yet. We have no doubt with her fiery personality and fighting spirit she will be giving Wilson a run for his money in no time. So in the interest of fairness, we decided not to leave her out of the smiling fun.

"Great, at four months old I'm already more mature than my parents.
It is going to be a long 18 years" - Clara
