A future worth living for.

“A new little baby will make your days shorter, nights longer, bank account smaller, love stronger, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.”

I’m not sure if I am doing this quote any justice since I don’t know who said it or exactly *how* they said it.  I tried searching briefly on google, but to no avail.  Anyway, I have always liked it, so I thought I would share it here with a preview of one of the sweetest little baby girls I’ve seen in a while!  She had the the biggest blue eyes, a gorgeous smile and at five months old, she was in the prime teething phase of sucking on her tongue and drooling.  She even had a way of making THAT look cute:)

This first image just melts me.  She’s a natural mama, huh?  The last image is of two of her closest-in-age cousins.

Oh! So beautiful! I told you she has your eyes, Lisa. She is a chub, but on her it looks good. I love the light in her eyes in that one shot. Thanks for sharing.
