My Little Darling Opens Her Eyes

My baby is very funny. Ever since she was borned, she has not been opening her eyes much. Most babies I know have their eyes wide open the moment they came into the world. Doc said she finds it too bright to open her eyes, so she chooses to close them most of the time. Even inside my tummy, she was already a sleepy baby and loves to slumber all day long, and only becomes more active in the night when it's not so bright. No, I'm not trying to be funny, because research shows that babies can detect light when they are 6 or 7 months in the womb.

Because of that, she has difficulty opening both eyes at the same time because one of the eye will always been stuck with dried tears and we need to help her 'pry' open the eye. haha.. She's getting much better nowadays though, and instead of just drinking milk and sleeping, there will be a couple of hours when she will not sleep but will just lie in her cot with her eyes open. Her eyes are not fully open yet because there's still water retention in her eyelids and when she opens them now, we can only see the pupil and not the white porton. But I believe she will open fully soon (keep my fingers crossed). Anyway, I was thrilled that day cos I found her double eyelids! But can't really see now, cos it's hidden underneath the eyefold. When the water retention fully subsides, I think can see much clearer. : )

See the precious photos of her eyes open!

My parents came to visit me and Joey the other day. Finally my mum has taken a photo with her grand-daughter! People say I look like my mum, and Joey looks like me, so does it mean she looks like my mum too?? : )
