Mini-Me

Zara is doing well and John and I are adjusting to having another little person around that depends on us. Mona has also been a great help to have here, as I'm not allowed to lift anything heavier than Zara for a bit and am supposed to be generally resting. Zara eats, sleeps, and poops and my schedule isn't a whole lot different except interchange "eat" with "feed" and delete that whole sleep part. But she is a wonderful baby and we are both extremely happy to have her.

Zara is a cute, cute baby (yes we are biased) but has some distinctly mini-Nujoud characteristics. First, the full head of dark brown hair, definitely not John's. Second, she has already inherited the monkey from me with her feet. Second toe longer than the big toe and a gap between the two, monkey feet.

Because I can't resist and you should expect nothing less, gratuitous baby pictures will also now be all over this blog... ready, go.

Well, we know only the most brilliant people have the second toe longer than the first toe...glad to have Zara as part of this elite group [of freaks]. ;)

Waiting for more cute baby pics!

(I should clarify to those that don't know me...I am also a second toe longer than the first freak, so that was a genuine compliment to Zara.) :)

Nujoud and I both have the 2nd toe longer than the big toe "syndrome" :P
