Posted by: jen at July 29, 2005 04:31 PMOK, I just had to reread the post about breastfeeding so I remember some of the hard parts about early infanthood.
Because otherwise, that picture makes me want to go get myself knocked up again right now. :)
Seriously, she is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. AWWWW.

Posted by: julianne at July 29, 2005 05:50 PMoh my god - I want to eat her cheeks! And when I say it, it's in the best way possible. Babies have that affect on me. *sigh* That is a darling picture - I love it. So happy for you. :-)

Posted by: Wendy at July 29, 2005 07:23 PMAaaaaaaaaaahhhh.
Your pulling at my heartstrings here. I'm not gonna ever have another one of those precious pumpkins grow inside of me. Sigh... It's a good thing but also a bad thing. Enjoy her.
Posted by: sleepingmommy at July 29, 2005 07:47 PMShe's so adorable. I just started reading your site a week or so ago and I'm hooked. Thank you for sharing with us!
Posted by: L. at July 29, 2005 08:28 PMthat is the cutest picture i have ever freaking seen!
Posted by: Angela at July 29, 2005 08:51 PMwow, I can't believe how alert she is after only a week! Not to mention gorgeous, cute, adorable... well done Beth & Chris!
Posted by: Emily at July 29, 2005 08:59 PMBeth,
Even though I haven't commented I've been reading. I am SO HAPPY for the two of you. Try to enjoy every second despite the exhaustion and feelings of inadequacy (I'm assuming everyone has those feelings just 'cause I did...sorry...i shouldn't do that!)
1. I LOVE the name Amelia and may now actually steal it if we ever have another one and its a girl.
2. She is adorable! And I'm not just saying that.
3. When you look back at the pictures and think about her infancy you'll realize little pieces of her personality were already poking through at this very young age. It's pretty amazing.
Take care of yourselves and baby Amelia!
She's beautiful. Now stop it, you're making me mess up my otherwise perfect eye makeup.
Posted by: Anne at July 29, 2005 10:04 PMThat's an awesome picture, and strikes me as something you might previously have done with your cat. See how Mia fits into the family already? You're using her as picture fodder! Isn't parenthood wonderful? *lol*
p.s. Well done - both on the baby and the picture. :)
Posted by: Iki at July 29, 2005 10:44 PMShit, meant to change my email cookie. Sorry. *lol*
Posted by: Iki at July 29, 2005 10:45 PMThis is by far my favorite of the belly pics. She looks a lot like my daughter as a newborn. Translate that to mean, she's beautiful.
Posted by: Debbie at July 29, 2005 10:58 PMShe's perfect in every way!!
Posted by: Nina at July 29, 2005 11:33 PMThis was a cute picture!! I checked out The Mr's site and can I just applaud you all on how awesome you did on creating such a perfect little girl! And by the way you dont look so bad yourself....I could call you some harsh names now in retrospect to how great you look for just popping out a kid and all but because you did such a great job I will just politely say that you look wonderful! And im not jealous of how you look or anything, no not all, i swear!
Posted by: Dawn at July 29, 2005 11:39 PMI love that pic... adorable. I love the name too!
Posted by: Mary Jo at July 30, 2005 12:24 AMWhat a purrrfect little bean! And yes, it is normal to feel crazed right now. It will pass. Eventually. Kind of. lol! You are doing a bang up job. Hope that Leaky McHurty goes away soon.
Posted by: Erin at July 30, 2005 12:38 AMYour little girl is beautiful. My wife had a hard time with our son (the older child) learning to nurse. Just relax and try not to put too much pressure on yourself. It's a learning process for everyone.
Posted by: Bill at July 30, 2005 12:44 AMI don't get it... how did she fit in there?? ;) This picture is so adorable... and so are those on daddy's site. She is soooo cute!! Enjoy every second!
Posted by: Jaime at July 30, 2005 11:03 AMA-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!! That's my favorite pic of your belly so far! ;)
Posted by: Garnet at July 30, 2005 11:52 AMwow. that's really sweet.
i can't wait to read about her 'firsts'. hope you're all doing well.
;)
Posted by: Sarcomical at July 30, 2005 11:53 AMThat's such a cute photo! She's adorable.
Posted by: Milly at July 30, 2005 12:55 PMWhat an awesome picture, and beautiful little girl you have.
Posted by: Adi at July 30, 2005 01:04 PMOmigosh! Can you believe that was INSIDE you???
She is incredible and so lucky to have you and Chris as her parents. Good luck with the Leaky McHurty issue. It gets easier.
Posted by: Cori at July 30, 2005 01:31 PMI LOVE IT. I agree with Cori, isn't it hard to imagine she was inside your belly?
Posted by: Sarcastic Journalist at July 30, 2005 04:01 PMI came here through fluid pudding...what a gorgeous little girl! Congratulations!
Posted by: Tammy/averagemom at July 30, 2005 04:34 PMOH MY GOD!! How beautiful!

Posted by: Stacy at July 31, 2005 12:31 PMWhat a wonderful picture!
As far as the boobs. Get your consultant to give you these lovely brown, gel-things to slip into your bra over those bleeding nipples. They are heavenly and heal the baby-feeders quickly!
Posted by: angela marie at July 31, 2005 02:03 PMah! i love that!
adorable.
That picture is so freaking cute I was forced to squeal out loud when I saw it.
Posted by: Karla at July 31, 2005 05:46 PMThat is my favorite belly picture. Totally adorable. Congrats!
Posted by: Karen at July 31, 2005 06:37 PMShe is SO gorgeous!!! I have to say, this kid rivals my niece Evelyn, who I think is the prettiest baby ever. :-) My niece had the SAME head of hair when she was born - so black and so MUCH of it! Your Mia is such a beauty!
Posted by: Katie-be-bored-at-work at July 31, 2005 11:29 PMOffically the cutest picture ever. How on earth did she fit????? The miracle . . . I suppose :)
Posted by: wavybrains at August 1, 2005 12:02 AMOH. MY. GOODNESS! How precious is SHE?? My baby is just 7 1/2 months, but seeing adorable newborn pictures like this makes me want another one already!
Posted by: Andrea at August 1, 2005 12:27 AMFluid Pudding is right on -- cutest...picture...ever.
