Xeney congrats on your daughter!

Hi, everyone, and thank you! What a nice welcome for Penelope. And thank you, Mimi, for reminding me of this thread! I did see it right after you started it but that was back before I learned how to type while the baby nurses. I have a lot of unanswered email from that period because I can't type one-handed. Or no-handed.

Things are great -- she is fantastic, a happy and easy baby who slept through the night for the first time last night at nine weeks. She's still pretty small for her age but she's catching up. Daddy is sure she's going to be a physicist and a mountain biker and possibly a rockstar.

Here she is with Daddy, about a month ago:




She laughs all the time. I am pretty sure I took this one during one of my workouts, which crack her up because I am so out of shape and yet I always tell her how strong Mommy is. She knows better:



Here we are at the river last weekend:



Here she is looking like an elf:



And here she is this weekend at the farmer's market, all snuggled up with her pink bicycles:

Awwww, how adorable! What is it about a baby that just gets the maternal instincts going, lol. Enjoy her Xeney, she is sooo precious!!

great pictures! i love the blanket. She's an adorable child. Don't worry about her being small. That means your back won't go out as fast..
My sons were both small too. They're both grown up now and are of quite normal sizes.

Gorgeous!!
Don't worry about small. I had 2 of our 3 born under 3 kg/ 6 1/2 lbs. Now 20 and 18 yrs old. .Anyway, small babies do all the motor stuff faster 'coz there is less mass to motor-ize you geddit. They also look more intelligent.
Enjoy her, they are tiny for such a short time.
