A portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week.

garden dream

Seraphina Violet Juliette…

has ticklish thighs, discovered by accident during a massage.

and a double jointed thumb just like two of her brothers.  I peeked in the sling to find her sleeping peacefully with it pointing backwards, pressed against her sweet chubby check.

has taken to sucking that very thumb.

rolled over from back to front.

is fascinated with her toes.

makes this sort of surprised cooing noise that sounds just like a dove call.

finally managed to knock my breakfast dish out of my hands.

is leaving me a bit bleary eyed these last few days and wondering what happened to my dependable little sleeper.  It was such a novel and exciting thing to have a baby that slept well!  Fingers crossed that this is just a quickly passing phase!
