The photo is blurry--goodness how babies wiggle!--but the smile is clearly visible. I don't believe those who claim babies can't smile and that expressions resembling smiles are simply gas-related. For 2 reasons:
1. if they can express unhappiness and discomfort, why not also happiness and contentment?
2. who smiles when they have gas?
Few things are thrilling as newborn baby coos, giggles and smiles.

ha good points.
When he's in 7th grade and hangin' out with his friends, they'll be smiling a lot about gas. On purpose. And mostly because you're not smiling about it. Joshua thinks his first cousin, William, is the greatest thing since sliced bread because he can toot on command. William can practically perform 4 bars of "Dixie", which has elevated him to near celebrity status in Joshua's eyes. So, there you go. Something to look forward to!
Elizabeth, I must say that was brilliantly put. Such giggles. I'm certain that with the 3 boys currently residing in my home I will suffer more than my share of similar experiences. At least I don't have to go to Scout Camp.
Oh, yes. You're definitely in for it!
