Wow - being new parents, we had no idea of the kind of progress babies were capable of making in the first four days! Here are a few of the things that Sophie has surprised us with!
* She smiled and laughed at an funny, obscure literary reference that Holly made.
* She learned to snap her fingers - amazing manual dexterity!
* She crawled on day 2, and shortly thereafter, started toddling around on her own two feet. We expect wind sprints within the week.
* Thankfully, she is now potty-trained. I don't know how many more diapers I could have handled - we almost reached double-digits!
* She turned down her first scamming telemarketer (with the phrase "I wasn't born yesterday, you know"), and was polite, but firm.
* She memorized the words to Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven". Her delivery still needs work, though.
* Oh, and early this morning (before the telemarketer call and the the poetry), she said her first words... "What day is it today, again?"
