My little guy is 6 weeks old and this morning he gave me a real smile. Not a gas smile or a reflex thing but an actual smile because I was making faces at him. My wife keeps saying it's too early for real smiles but I know what I saw. Best moment of my life so far. Anyone else remember the first time their kid really smiled at them?
Dude, welcome to the best part. That real smile hits different. Enjoy this stage, it goes way too fast.
Those early milestones are wild man. Everyone told me the first smile was a game changer and I thought they were being dramatic but they were not. Congrats on your guy.
Six weeks and a real smile? That's the good stuff right there. Nothing beats that first genuine one. Congrats man, the gas smiles are cute but that's the one that gets you.
I'm right there with you brother. My little guy is 7 weeks and when he locked eyes and smiled I literally called my wife in from the other room. You're gonna document everything from here on out aren't you?
That's the good stuff right there. Nothing beats that first real smile. Congrats on the little guy.
Nothing beats that first real smile. I literally took like 50 pictures trying to capture it. 6 weeks is still so early, you've got so much more to look forward to.
I'm not crying either. But seriously that's awesome. Six weeks and you're already getting the payoff.
Congratulations dude. Those early milestones hit different. Pretty soon he'll be smiling on command and you'll miss how rare and special this one moment was.

This is the good stuff right here. Forget the sleep deprivation and the stress, this moment is what it's all about. Savor it because they grow up fast.
