It was a sad day in the neighborhood when Abby and I were struck with the growing realization that our Baby Girl is no longer a pink-bodied newborn. She has graduated to infant status.
This was discovered for two reasons and confirmed through the process of deductive reasoning:
1) Eliza can no longer comfortably wear newborn diapers. Her new size (creatively referred to as “1” bythe diaper magnates) is much larger than the “N” diapers (see what I mean?) and even go as high onto her waist to cover her belly button. The larger size does have one advantage: it can accommodate larger deposits.
2) The full-bodied newborn elephant sleeper (and equally cute newborn sleepers as pictured below) has been shelved for retirement and was the first wardrobe casualty(don’t worry—another able bodied sleeper eagerly took its place). It is sad to think that she will never wear it again.

Holy crap she's cute!
ReplyDeleteThat last photo is my favorite of all time. It's a keeper...and something that will embarrass her to no end, I'm sure, later in life. But, it must be kept. It's hard to believe she's already outgrowing newborn stuff. That's because, of course, she's 1.5 days old in my mind. So tiny! Glad to see you all are well.
ReplyDeleteOh, God, she is beyond cute! I'm not too biased, am I? And Gary, you must post more often. I enjoyed reading your slant on Eliza's growth and development. You and Abby are a great mama and papa.
