She is a bundle of joy, isn't she? She looks to have a joyful, playful, and affectionate spirit, and if I'm not mistaken, there seems to be a lovely dab of lighthearted mischievousness! What a beautiful girl!
I ditto Jennifer -- she always has the right words to say. :) They are both gorgeous and FUN!! Great pictures!!!
