This Morning's Cuddlefest

I am in love with my baby. Like, so desperately in love with her. She's sweet and playful and silly and smiley and wonderful. This morning I fed her at 6:30 and then Josh took her out to play on the floor while I snoozed for a couple of minutes before getting up. I kept hearing Josh laughing out loud in the living room and pretty soon he brought Scarlet back in because he couldn't help sharing her playfulness. Apparently she kept wriggling around on the floor in the living room and looking back at Josh to give him a big smile. Every time I looked at her, she'd smile and cover her face with her little arms. Josh handed her over to me and I tickled her and she giggled and we played for a little bit before I wrapped my arms around her and gave her the pacifier. The playfulness changed into a tranquil stillness as we just lay together on the bed while I pulled up my work laptop and signed into work. In a couple of minutes, Scarlet had fallen blissfully asleep and we snuggled like that for the next half hour.

How can anyone resist such sweetness? She is the best thing to happen to me.
