More baby pictures!

I know I've been bad about putting up pictures since Mirah was born.  Fortunately Claire picked up some of the slack, but here are a few more pictures of the cutest baby ever off my phone.

Here's the picture I sent a lot of people of Mirah when we were still in the hospital.  Face...so....cute....

Here's another picture of Mirah in her tanning bed.  She had a bit of jaundice, so she had to spend about two days soaking up some rays.  The bed had this kind of jacket thing that you had to put her in, and another light pad that went on her tummy.  She had to spend most of her time in it and couldn't be held so she pretty much hated it.  Note the awesome green hat that Claire knitted (in the midst of contractions before Mirah was born no less).  Also, those things on her hands are actually socks, but they were warmer than the mitts the hospital had (you can see one of those to the right of her head).

Here she's ditched one of her sock-gloves.  She is pretty much not a fan of socks or gloves.  Gotta be able to wiggle the digits.

The fluorescent lights in our hospital room weren't very good for taking pictures, but here is Mirah at two days old.  She's already so much bigger...

Suggly baby!  Here is Mirah asleep in her straight jacket shirt at the hospital.

Here is Mirah getting her first ever bath (aside from when she was cleaned after she was born).  On Monday her umbilical cord fell off so now she can have real baths instead of just sponge baths.  On Monday she also giggled for the first time in her sleep.  I wonder what babies dream about.  Whatever it is it must be really wild given the range of facial expressions she has when she's dreaming.

Look at those baby cheeks! Here is Mirah being burped (or trying to eat Claire's hand).  I prefer to think it's the later since it bodes well for having another omnivore in the house...

Hopefully now that things are 'settling down' I'll be more regular in posting updates.

Mirah's here!





Here's some pictures finally! Newest one on top from today. The bottom one from right after Mirah arrived. Then Simon cat and Mirah gettin' along (though Simon is jealous of the attention of course...he's been good around her.) And another cute one from a few days ago. Not sure if you can tell how much bigger she's gotten in just 10 days!
