Here are some new photos of the bumkin. By the looks of things, she's very into expressing herself via the "power fist." If I may extrapolate, I think she's trying to convey a sign of "I'm here, I'm loving life!" So, yeah... She's doing well. Cooing up a storm and even smiling. Someone at Cory's office said something about how babies don't smile until they are quite a bit older (like, 3 months or so). I don't want to sound like some delusional new mother who cannot be convinced that her child is not making milestones, BUT... I did look it up in my "Baby Book" by Dr. Sears, and he confirms that babies do begin "social smiles" in their second month of life. So, I stand firm. She smiles. And it's pretty friggin' adorable.Also, I have a book recommendation for any nursing mother or about to be nursing mother. It's called, "How My Breasts Saved the World" and it's by Lisa Wood Shapiro. Funny, fast read.
And in other news, Scout and I head back to work on July 23rd. Wish us luck!
