Sophie Quinn Harris

Her birth story is in the previous post, this one is just about her.

Sophie was born at 2:46 PM on March 5...which is actually my Mom's birthday as well. She weighed 8 lbs. 5 oz. and was 20.5 in long. She has lots of dark hair, primarily on the back of her head with an extra thick stripe of hair down the middle of the top of her head. We affectionately refer to it as her mohawk. She has a cleft chin like her Dad and one dimple in her left cheek just like her Mom. When her hair gets wet it goes SUPER curly and she has the prettiest mouth (there is a good photo of her mouth later).

We have taken to calling her Q (Scott is thrilled that it carries an extra James Bond reference) and thingy. She is a very smiley baby and very laid back. She eats well (as evidenced by the fact that she gained a little over 2 lbs. in her first 2 weeks). She only gets up to eat once during the night...something I am SUPER grateful for, and she has her Dad completely smitten. She has a whole range of hysterical facial expressions, which I will feature in a separate post. She loves to wrap her fingers in the hair at the back of her head to fall asleep, and I think it may be creating a bald spot. Now for a whole slew of pictures.
