Edward's behavior wasnt much of what I expected. I didnt read much about Edward parenting Nessie. I thought that Edward didnt care for Nessie because he didnt give enough attention to her. For Bella, I thought she was responsible and caring for her daughter. I just wished that Edward would give more attention to Nessie than Bella. Beside's its their only real daughter. ;)

I like that they are a family. It was and still odd for me to see Bella as a mother. We've known her as a more a high school girl and all that, though she is wise beyond her years it's still weird for me to adjust to that, her being a mom. Edward i feel is an old soul and he is ready for fatherhood, it's pretty cool to me. I would've liked to see how he adjusted to being a father and his and Renesme's relationship. Bella is a great mom and because of her gift of protection it's funny how she's more protective than Edward is. I love when Edward calls Jacob his son, it's funny because when i think of that part of the Cullens- Edward, Bella and Renesme i immediately think of Jacob as part of that. Anyway they make a good family but it's also odd because of their age, then again SM makes it seem that they're souls have been connected for years.

i was just wondering how edward could read nessie's mind when bella was still pregnant with her, i don't think she even knew how to speak/think english??? and i'm also wondering if edward can understand what people are thinking in a language he doesn't understand.

I would think that he would be able to understand her. Edward wasn't always able to read her thoughts, it was when Nessie was further along in development, that he started to hear her thoughts. Given what we know of her character she was very advanced, ie reading Tennyson, and being able to talk early on.

As for Edward not being around, I think he was, but we see things only in Bella's POV after Nessie is born, so that is likely the reason why we saw more of Bella with Nes, instead of Edward and I don't think there was a question of him loving her after she was born, once he realized that Nessie loved Bella and in turn him, and after she was born he was quite taken with her.

"Tell me about her."

Edward "She's like nothing else in the world," he told me, and the sound of an almost religious devotion was there again in his voice.

I won't go through and quote all the parts but I will add this one from Renesmee's Memories. ...Or the song Edward had crooned to her that was so perfect Renesmee played it for me twice...

I like them as a family, and the happy ending, but anyway that's my input of sorts.

I think they all love each other as a family and is cute how Renesme and her mother are so close. Bella really cherishes her family and I think Edward feels the same way.

i think that despite his being seventeen, Edward would make a great father to Nessie, primarily because Edward loves Bella and Nessie is half-Bella...
I also think that Edward's love for Bella wasn't given to much emphasis in BD since there was a lot going on and everything was from Bella's perspective...
maybe we will see more of it if SM decides to write BD from Edward's perspective...

I agree, she hasn't wrote much about Edward in his prespective though. But it doesn't matter we can still see that Edward deeply loves his family. =D

That would be an AWESOME TV show! I would TOTALLY watch it! lol
I think that them as a family is very cute. I like imagining Edward as a father. He really fits the role perfectly. He was sorta acting like a father to Bella in Eclipse when he was really protective of her.
Even before she is born they are a cute little family, "the two of them bent over the budding, invisible monster with their eyes lit up like a happy family"
So, thats not the best quote because of all of Jacob's meanness to her, but anyway, it really shows the love they both have for each other and Nessie.

Nessie was thinking in English. It's known that babies in the womb recognize the voices of their parents and bond to them before they are even born. Nessie being the super-baby that she is could understand what was being said around her. That's why she starts doing what she can to try not to hurt Bella. She understands from what she hears that Bella's life is in danger because of her and makes the best effort she can not to hurt Bella. Always the sweetie.
