Many of you were aware of my attachment to my “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” book – well, now that Sophie is here I’m past the interesting tidbits of “I’m growing a kidney this week” and on to interesting facts about our baby that I can glean from the “What to Expect: The First Year”. I thought I’d share a few of those with you, along with some more personal facts about our little kiddo. Also, since today is the last day of January be sure to check out the Kodak Gallery link to pics to see all of the pictures from this month. Thanks to everyone who has left comments on the blog and pictures!!
- Though she sometimes gives a full smile, Sophie usually cracks a half-grin which shows an adorable little dimple on her right side (I think she has one on her left too, but she really works that right one!)
- Newborns don’t get tears until near the end of the first month
- Right now her vision is best between 8-14 inches away from her eyes
- Yesterday when Tom was holding her it was like all of the sudden she saw her hands and realized that they were hers – great expression!
- She reminds us of Will Ferrell in Talladega Nights: she doesn’t know what to do with her hands…they drift upwards
- Some babies stop breathing, sometimes for as long as 10 seconds, while they are sleeping
- A baby’s grip is strong enough to hold their body weight when they are born
