Worrying is baggage that comes with the journey of parenting. It starts on day one and never ends.
But as the parents of some of our TODAY's Babies of the Week advise, it's important to put worry aside in order to experience the good stuff along the way.
"Savor every moment, every smile, every giggle,” say Stephanie and Kyle Holcomb, parents of Ava Grace Holcomb, born Feb. 24.
Alissa Kaufmann, mom of Ronan Daniel Kaufmann, born Feb. 27, says: “Children learn best through actions, not words. Show them love, strength, and courage!”
And don't fret about being flawless. Elizabeth Hill and Alexander Bean, parents of Leo Alexander Bean, say: “Being a parent isn’t about being perfect. It’s about doing the best you can and loving your child with all your heart.”
Each week, Kathie Lee and Hoda select a few JOHNSON'S Babies of the Week to be featured on TODAY. And because your kids are way too cute to stop there, we choose more little ones for our online gallery.
If you have had a baby in the past two months, click on the “add photos” link and enter your little doll’s mug (newborn to 8 weeks old) for consideration to be featured on a future show and online in an upcoming week. Click here to see advice on the kind of photos we're looking for in this contest.
