Alex slept well last night and this morning, in nice long three-and-a-half-hour bursts. Which meant that she didn't eat much over that time period. Which meant that, all day today, she wanted to nurse every hour and fifteen minutes. I never got the chance to put her down for more than ten minutes.

Blessedly, curiousangel is currently taking a turn with the baby so that I can have a few moments of peace without anyone hanging off my nipples. In a few minutes, though, I'll have to go downstairs and pump so we'll have supplemental milk for the night.

She's still the cutest thing ever. Just look at this picture.

At the risk of stating the obvious, THAT is a beautiful baby. (And she's got good parents, too!)

Awww.

So cute! And so big already!

[writingortyping.livejournal.com]

Pictures like that make the desire to emit "baby talk" ("Who's a pwecious bootiful girl? You are!") almost reasonable.

She's gorgeous.

That's a very alert-looking child.

[curiousangel.livejournal.com]

She has some seriously-alert moments, and she also has a surprising range of moods and expressions. She's got one expression that we call "her dubious face", because she's looking at us with an expression that says, "I don't think that's gonna work, but y'all are controlling the milk supply, so I guess we'll try it your way".

Really expressive for less than three weeks old. :)

Not only cute, but she's one of those babies who looks wise beyond her years. Love that.

[hobbitbabe.livejournal.com]

True, she is the cutest thing ever. And way more grown up than last pictures.

Awwwwwwww. What a lovely, alert baby.

I love the blue sleeper. Wonderful colour, especially on girls ;)

She *is* the cutest thing ever!

So lovely and fuzzy-haired!

[puppytown.livejournal.com]

She is darling! I hope you're holding up well, too.

Already tracking at two weeks? Goodness.

And still with the adorable sticky-uppy hair!

[kcobweb.livejournal.com]

So cute.... And very alert. Enjoy the sleep she lets you have - it's all a trade-off really.

[rivka.livejournal.com]

I love your pictures! I'm so glad to get to see Elena at last. She and Alex have very similar dubious expressions. ;-)

[zerbie.livejournal.com]

Gah! She's so cute! :D I'm so happy for you two. :)

[micheinnz.livejournal.com]

Yep, she's a cutie alright. But how could she not be with parents like you two?

[lcohen]

oh! what a sweetie!!!

She is the cutest thing ever!

You will sleep again. Some time.
