Getting to know her...

Only 7 weeks old, and already Sarah has enormous personality. Big eyes, looking surprised and delighted all the time, wander around the room, from face to face, and light up with the smile that erupts when she spies another smiling face looking her way. She loves people, and will carry on conversations with Ken that make even me jealous. Just a few short weeks ago, water on skin made her scream, but now bath time is a favorite part of her routine. I can finally tell the difference between hunger cry and tired cry, and she has fallen into a nice rhythm of naps and awake time, with very little crying in between. The car seat is not her favorite place to be, and bumpy car rides make her startle and cry over....and over...and over.

She likes when Emma sings to her.

She straightens out her body real stiff when she wants you to pick her up.

Loud noises make her cry.

I am enjoying getting to know this new little person.
