し in 安心しきった寝顔
Does it function like 'and'? As in:
安心しきった寝顔
A relieved and exhausted sleeping face (きった is exhausted right?).

きる(切る) on the end of a verb means that action is finished or complete. In this case it is on the end of the verb 安心する

Re: し in 安心しきった寝顔
Oh so し is from します and the ます is cut off for きった?
So it kind of makes 安心 into a verb?
安心 Relief
安心しきった Relieved

Yes kiru takes the 'masu' stem of the verb. So 食べきれない = unable to finish eating (何も残さないように、最後まで食べることができない)
安心しきった寝顔 is kind of like a sleeping face that is perfectly relaxed (maybe you can think of a smoother translation)
