There have been a couple time that I’ve caught Little Janie holding her own pacifier.
Seems a bit early for her age but I’m not complaining!!
Belly Time!
Check out that belly! She just had breakfast and has such a content look on her face.
2 Weeks Old
Janie turned 2 weeks old today! She’s gotten longer, heavier, and even cuter! She’s been napping for longer stretches and eating like a champ, which probably means she’s in the middle of a growth spurt.
I took some photos of her up-close today to record this day. Happy Two Weeks, Baby Girl!
Kumquat
At 10 weeks gestation, Janie was just the size of a kumquat. When we read this, the name kind of stuck as her nickname for the rest of the pregnancy. To this day, we still call her Kumquat sometimes…especially when she’s being a little sneaky or fussy.
So, now at 2 weeks of age, I thought it would be nice to take some portraits of her with an actual kumquat.
This photo looks a little awkward but she didn’t really like holding the kumquat in her hand. It seemed like she was about to chuck it back to me at any second.
Lanugo
I took this photo today to capture the “lanugo” or fine, downy hair that covers Janie’s arms, shoulders, back, legs, and ears. It’s commonly found on newborns and she should be losing it in the next week or so.
I love those cheeks!
I love those cheeks!
Dimple!!
I think she has a dimple on her left cheek! Yay!
Wrinkles
Janie has long fingers like her Daddy.
We’re hoping that she won’t have his flat feet too.
Baby Skin
Janie didn’t make things very easy for me during the delivery. She thought it would be a good idea to have her hand up against her face as she came out of the womb. Here’s a close-up of her face just hours after her birth. She had a little bruise on her right cheek from where her hand was stuck. Luckily, baby skin heals quickly.
Here’s another photo of her just a couple hours later. It’s gone! Amazing!
