More Sarah

Sarah had a doctor's appointment last Friday and then today. Just regular check up for a newborn. On Friday she weighed 6lbs even. She had the very slightest of yellow coloring (jaundice). Today she weighed 6lbs 7oz and whatever amount of jaundice there was has disappeared.

Sarah has had quite a few visitors over the first week of her life (tomorrow at 3:17pm will be officially one week). Here's some (definitely not all) of the people who have come out to see her.

Dave and Amy visited on the 4th, when Sarah was just a little girl.

I like this picture. My nephew is named after my grandfather, and Sarah is named after my grandmother, so it's kind of a reuniting.

Micky came over on the 7th and brought Sarah her first teddy bear.

Here's Sarah in the cradle my dad made back in 1969 and the teddy bear Micky brought. The cradle is tradition. Every baby in my family since my dad built it has used this cradle. I guesstimate about 18 babies have been in it.

Sherri's uncle does stained glass and made this for Sarah

Yesterday, my sister came over and took about 600 shots of Sarah. She's going to make a birth announcement for us.

Her kids came in for a bit. Rhys, her oldest, was very good with Sarah. He came over to her and put his hand on her head and said, "She's so cute" in a real high voice. Then the kids played STUN Runner.

I'm going to have to scrounge together all the pictures that must be floating around (that aren't on my camera). I don't have any pictures for March 5th or any pictures with Sherri's uncle with Sarah. I'll have to raid my family's various photos.

I did take this picture of Sherri and Sarah during the photo session.
