One photograph shows the infant with a pacifier duct-taped to her mouth.  Another shows the baby in a roasting pan with potatoes.

The grandma posted the images to her Facebook page, saying she thought they would make others laugh.  Instead, it attracted the attention of police and child abuse investigators.

"Oh, it's definitely taught me a lesson.  What we think is funny, other people don't.  It will never happen again.  It's definitely taught us a lesson," Sheaks said.

The baby's mother said she didn't have an issue with the photos.
