It has been happening more and more! The Sleepy Bird is waking up, though she is still a very cool customer. In this particular photo, she is struggling through another round of hiccups before heading off to nurse. Our Girl is a hiccupper. In the hospital and hew first few nights home, she could be counted on for a good round of hiccups at about ten o'clock. We "rub 'em out." At least, this is what Julie says to Clara as she rubs her back which in reality does nothing, but it makes at least one of them feel better.(Clara would like our readers to know that her nails are in fact filed down to a respectable-un-talon-like length as befitting a two-week old newborn, despite what the presence of the scratch on her face in this picture would suggest.)
Hey, there she is! Can't wait to look into those big browns in person :)
ReplyDeleteNewborn skin is sensitive. My first instinct was that it was from the slightly dry edge or a happy Roo tongue and, really, that kind of scratch just comes from the very best place.
