First Impressions

(From our first day back together, April 18th!)
*She's as beautiful as we remember!
*We've never seen her feet! They are long and skinny with a cute little birthmark on the bottom of her left foot.
*She is incredibly flexible and plays with her feet like they are toys.
*Her muscles are very weak. She is very wobbly and unable to sit up. Sadly, this is due to the fact that she was mostly laying in a crib for the first seven months of her life.
*She can roll well but she prefers to stay on her back.
*When we hold her up, she doesn't know to put her legs down. She doesn't seem to have ever put weight on her legs.
*She has two tiny, crooked bottom teeth.
*Her language seems to be developing well. She babbles and "talks" all the time. Her favorite sound is "Da" and Bobby is working very hard to help her know that is his name.
*She has very expressive eyebrows, like her Daddy and a long torso just like our other three.
*To sooth herself to sleep, she likes to rub fabric on her lips. If a blanket is not available, her sleeve or the front of her shirt will do. She prefers to have her face partially covered by her arm or a blanket while she sleeps.
*Her hair is about an inch long, in tiny curls against her head.
We are in LOVE!
