Wednesday.

I need to start taking more pictures--still haven't taken any at home yet. She is already changing.

I like how she looks like a baldy in this picture. She kind of is...her hair is blond on top and brown on the sides. Definitely sparse all over, unlike Theo's, who came out looking like a 2-year-old. We'll see if it comes in more on top or if we'll be taking out the clippers.

Matt and I decided that she looks like a narrower, smaller version of newborn Theo. I also think she looks more like me than Theo did. Theo, as we all know, has been a mini version of his dad since birth. I know some of you have seen these (that's Matt on the left if it's not clear):


By the way, Theo has really been great with his little sister...in the 24 hours or so that we've been home. He definitely still wants his own separate time with me and with Matt, which is problematic for me while Ida is nursing, but otherwise he really seems to like her, so far. Or at least he finds her mildly interesting.

I just wanted to say that I love the name! And, that I had never seen the picture of Matt before but it is almost unnerving how much him and Theo look alike. I wish I could have a kid that looked like me!

love,
Alison

Holly said...

Congratulations! I hope you're doing well, and let me know if you need anything--really, I mean it. She's absolutely beautiful!

Dave and Mel said...

Yeah! Nce work on the VBAC. I want the details later. Love the name Ida - and fits so well in the fam - "Theo and Ida". Hope you're feeling well. I'm really excited Ida's a girl - one of each keeps you guessing.
Congrats, can't wait to meet her!

Love Mel

She's so adorable!!! Do you have any baby pics of you so we can compare?

Of course, you're pretty busy right now, so, ya know, when you get a sec.

That is crazy how much Theo looks like Matt! I don't think I've seen that picture before. I really thought they were both Theo.

I do think that Ida looks like you. I think she has your cute nose.

Hooray, a girl! Congratulations! Glad to hear you are home, and hopefully doing well. Way to go on the VBAC. You're awesome. Can't wait to see more pictures of your cute bundle of joy.

Congratulations on your little girl! I'm so glad she decided to cooperate and come on time and you got to enjoy labor! Let me know if you need anything! I will bring over pumpkin cheesecake one of these days!

Owen had that old man balding look for quite awhile. It doesn't keep them from looking cute! And, I can't believe that picture comparison of Matt and Theo. I always thought he took after him in looks, but wow, Theo is like a total replica!
