Sarah has been growing like a weed and changing every day. There are lots of things that have happened that I will post about in other posts, but this one is just for pics of Sarah.
This first one is from April 11.

Sarah started smiling the day after these were taken on April 16. She almost looks like she is smiling in the pic above, but it has been near impossible to get a pic of her smiling because every time I take a picture the camera has a green light that comes on and when she sees it she starts frowning at it.

Sarah as a bit of an outie belly button and I think it might change so I wanted to take a pic of it!

Sarah wore my mother's dress to church! It is such a sweet little dress!
Love all her funny little faces!
We got Sarah smiling really well last night while I was talking to Becca on the phone. She had just finished eating and so I took a video first to make sure I caught it before trying to get some pics. Here is the link to the video and below are the pics I took, but only the first one looks like she is smiling.

Aaron wanted to snuggle up with Sarah this morning so we got a few really cute pics with the two of them. April 28...
Sarah is so much more than a newborn now. As a newborn she communicated discomfort, hunger, wet diaper, needing to burp, but that was about it. She had alert times but couldn't take in much of her surroundings. In the last two weeks she has started crying for other reasons, like me putting her down, or being startled by a loud noise. She smiles and when she is alert her head and arm movements have a lot more purpose behind them. She looks at you more directly and she uses her arms to try to hold onto things. When she nurses her hands no longer hang limp by her sides but hold onto me. There is a picture above of her holding onto her toy in her car seat and we didn't place it in her hand, she did! As she has grown physically she is changing inwardly as well and it is so amazing to watch. Her double chin and chunky thighs are so adorable, but her smile when she looks at me is magical.
