I make some of those same faces while waking up! It's much cuter coming from an 8 month old though!

Hopefully when she gets a head full of hair, she won't look like her daddy in the morning!!!! Scarry.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE all her little rolls! She's growing SO much! Isn't it incredible how much they change and how quickly? God is good!

Derek said...

I just wanted to finally comment and say that I have been reading your blog for awhile now, since just before Gwyneth was born. As I've been following your blog lately, I just never cease to be amazed at how God has blessed your little girl: how she was born, survived, and is growing and looking so healthy and strong now! Your story has been so inspiring and interesting to follow. Thanks for sharing your lives!

danabrown said...

What cute funny faces! Silly girl!

Lyndsay said...

Hilarious! When I saw the last picture, I wondered if maybe she was working on something for her diaper?...

Faithe said...

I was also thinking that she has her Daddy's ability at face-making. BUT SHE'S MUCH CUTER!! HA These pictures remind me of my kiddos when they were little; indeed, waking up is hard to do! Thanks for sharing your lives with us. You guys are a great family and it's so neat you have these pictures to show Gwenyth as she grows up. Some of htem will embarrass her, I'm sure. Enjoy the moment!! SMILE

Jarboetwingles said...

You may want to remember as you choose those photos that she will be the one selecting your nursing home someday :) But I say take the risk cause it keeps all of us so happy :) seeing her sweet face!
(ps.. sorry that I always spell her name wrong! I always reverse the y and e. GRRRR!!)

Jennifer said...

Oh my goodness that last picture made me laugh so hard! This picture has to be shared with anyone in need of a good laugh!

MamaMia said...

Can you blame her for enjoying her beauty sleep? Maybe it's a girl thing!!

Carol said...

That is unbelievable--the only picture you don't have is one of her hitting the snooze button!

Stefanie said...

She is to cute:) Love all of the pics.

Kerry said...

She is a cutie. I am not a morning person at all. So I understand. Takes me till lunch to adjust for the day.

Christina Miller said...

Her faces are super cute!!!

Kathy said...

Love those faces especially the last one! I wouldn't be surprised if she becomes the class clown with all those funny expressions.
Beautiful!

mom2LEAA said...

what great faces, and with that arching, she could become a gymnist. To think how big she is getting.

Renee said...

LOL how sweet!! I think she looks like you in those pics though Nate! HAHA! She is so precious! Got to love those faces...even though I make some of those myself in the morning...I'm quite sure she is much cuter when she makes them than I am! HAHA!
