Auntie love!

"That's right, I do!"

"Whaaaa, you didn't think I could read?  That's weird."

New hat!

Bernie just loves her new hat from Auntie Jill & Uncle Mikey!  

Fun with the mirror

"Looking at myself in the mirror is sooo delightful!"

"Tee hee!"

"Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh huh, uh huh"

Standing up with NO help!

Hanging with dad

Gramps in the yard

Post-bath time

Dad & daughter time

She may only be 7 weeks old, but she's already figured out that her dad is the finest snuggler in all the land.

Dad makes an excellent pillow.  

Holding on tight.

Here's dad working from home.  He does it all!

Happy girl

Baby Bernie likes to smile!

More smiles

Bernie sees herself!

At around 6 weeks, Bernie started favoring us with her cute smile, and by 7 weeks she became a smiling maniac!  She smiles at her mobile, toys, people, funny voices, but most especially at herself!

Here's her reaction upon finally noticing her reflection in the little mirror suspended above her swing:

"What a good-looking baby!  Has she been here the whole time?"

Snarky baby

Bernie loves this special outfit from her sweet and hilarious Auntie Carolyn!

Giving us all an imperious look.

"...and there's nothing you can do to stop me."

Forgetting to be snarky while talking to mom.

Family time

"Happy Father's Day, Grandpa Mark!"

Grandpa Mark:  "If you want to be part of this family, you have to learn to like fro-yo, baby!"  

Enjoying her preferred dairy product.

Auntie Angela is a bottle administration expert!

Mom photobomb!

Hitting the bottle

"Mom and dad, thanks for your efforts, but I'll take it from here."

No help needed.

Grammy Juju's visit

Bernie got a very special visit from mom's mom, Grammy Juju!  She loved snuggling up with her grandma, getting spoiled by her, and of course sleeping on her.

"I love you, Grammy Juju!"

With three of her grandparents!

Bernie loves her friends!

Bernie is such a lucky girl to have so many wonderful friends visiting her!
