This might sound silly but I've been waiting weeks for my daughter to actually recognize me and smile. Today she gave me this huge gummy smile when I was changing her diaper and I literally teared up. Best moment so far. Guys, this bonding thing is real.

This is everything. Those early weeks feel like forever and then boom, that first genuine smile. You're doing great. It gets better from here.

Not silly at all man, that first real smile hits different. I remember waiting for that moment with my daughter and when it finally happened I just about lost it. Congrats, you're officially recognized!

That's not silly at all. That moment is huge. I remember feeling like my kid finally saw me as a person and not just the milk delivery guy.
