Edit - we went over this evening for Christmas, and Dreama (Carlee's mama) was THRILLED with it! She kept saying how awesome it was. I didn't get around to darkening it after all. :\ But I got some awesome pictures to draw from (or maybe paint!) next time. ^-^ Carlee, on the other hand, was more excited about the drawing than the rest of her gifts, lol - she kept saying 'Baby, baby' and she rocked it and kissed it and brushed the hair. It was SO cute. ^-^
If you're interested in seeing their reactions, I have spliced some videos I took w/ my digicam and put the result in my Photobucket account (um, it uploaded not so well for whatever reason, so it's a bit grainy looking) - it has Dreama opening it, and then it has some of Carlee's cute little dealings w/ it (kissing it, brushing her hair, giving her a drink, and even rocking and singing to it ). Cute, if you want to look! Edit: Nevermind, Photobucket obviously doesn't like splicing. It has the sound of the first bit, but not the video - the only video it uploaded is the middle one, so... you can hear their reaction, and you can see Carlee kissing the drawing and giving 'baby' a drink... but it's all off. Here it is if you still want to view it:

And here's a cute picture of Carlee and her mama w/ another of her gifts:

I did this for my... ex-sister-in-law-but-they're-not-actually-legally-divorced-yet-so-yeah.... My niece's mom. This is my niece, Carlee:
Sorry, the scanner scanned it lighter than it actually is. But you get the 'picture', heh. It says 'Carlee Jade', but I cropped it off so you just see the actual drawing. Here's the pic I drew it from:
[Deleted 'cause I added another picture]
What do you think? Do you think she'll like it? Now that I see the picture on the computer, which is much larger than the one I printed out, lol, I see some things I can change and details I can add. The scan lost some detail to it, unfortunately. I'm surprised that her eyes are actually half-way even - I have troubles w/ that, lol. But her nose is too long. Her hand was really hard to do because I couldn't see the detail in the picture (sad, too, because I love drawing hands). And I had to improvise on the bottom, but part of that will probably be cut off anyway if I frame it. Should I frame it?
Anyway, what do you think?
