Week9-A close up of Lian after a morning bath. So far, no hair has fallen out. Let's hope it stays. 

Week9-(this morning)-60+degrees, in the sun of our living room, in another of her little dresses loaned to her by Aunt Melissa (Melissa sewed this dress). It may fit for another two weeks! 

Week9-A close up of her scrunched up in the sling. May seem uncomfortable but a baby is so flexible that the warmth and comfort of being in fetal position outweighs whatever discomfort it may feel. 

Week9-This sling is magic. Highly recommended for all parents - it puts Lian to sleep in less than 5 minutes. 

Week9-She can focus on small objects just above her head very well now. 

Week9-Auntie Aparna and a surprised Lian.

Day 40 - Meeting the Ohashi gang. Very positive energy all around.  

Day 38 - not only does she take the bottle, but she'll take it from anyone, and practically with anything in it (formula is not a problem).
