Amara week 2

1/2/14 It is a new year already! Hard to believe that Amara Grace is already 2 weeks old. Life is pretty simple and pretty comfy for Amara these days. She takes lots of naps and feeds every 3 hours or so. Amara still LOVES to snuggle and often will not fall asleep unless she is being held. We recently tried the baby swing and that soothes Amara to sleep 1 out of every 2 tries. Overall Amara seems like a happy baby. She rarely cries and when she does, it is usually for a good reason (hunger, wet diaper, ect). Mom and Dad are adjusting to life on less sleep. We can't complain -- our little girl is a delight! Amara's new "tricks" include big stretches (arms over head), kicking legs and moving arms (fast!), smiling, holding her head up when she lying on her tummy.

The usual yawning, hiccups and sneezing continue. So cute to watch her in action!
