in even better news, Ford has his first bath yesterday! at 12 weeks old, to the day, he sat his butt in a tubby of warm water for the first time (he's only been sponge bathed to date). he didn't like it. we did, and will post photos soon.
also for the first time, he smiled for more than a fleeting moment. long enough for nick to mention it, me to get up and walk over and still see the beauty of it. in fact, for about 5 minutes, he seemed to be right cracking up. we were astounded as he has so rarely smiled thus far (who could blame him for not?) and thrilled to see him let loose for once! it was gorgeous. we don't have photos of it as we were too well absorbed in the moment to think of capturing it outside our memory, but hopefully it will start to happen more frequently and we won't mind looking away to look through a lens. he is soooooooooooooooo cute!!!
