8 lbs of fun

She gained more weight, and came in at 8lbs at her 2week (and 2 days) pediatrician visit. Still 20.5inches long, although that will probably change if she keeps eating the way she does now!

Her first visitors!! The proud Saba, and Sean and Anthony amongst others...our neighbors, Geoff & Cherise...lots of people to come oo and ah at the cutie.

While we own more Dell/Intel/AMD/Microsoft and other vendor gear than we ever wanted, we didn't think the child would wear corporate logo stuff. But after the 5th onesie of the day (sacrificed to pee, poop, and spitup), it was clean. So out it came. At least she had the good sense to protest...

I'd like to say that she's looking at herself in the mirror...but the truth is that she's just staring at light. That's about all she can see at the moment!

Dahlia needs a passport by the time she is 10 weeks old in order to join in on the annual Yamada family vacation. The passport agency says her passport picture needs to have a white background and her head must be unsupported. Easily said, difficult to do when you're 2 weeks old and obviously can not hold your head up by yourself. Our attempts to get a picture are not going so well...

Her first Halloween...not quite a costume, but in the spirit of things. She also got to meet her future bodyguard, Liam, and his mom Deanna. Liam is 15 weeks old and she's got a lot of growing to do to catch up to him!
