The standard size changing pad has turned into a very useful item. We took it off the changing table and set it on the dining table and it has become a great place to both change her and let her nap. It works better than a bassinet because I can glance over to see if she is breathing and such. It has sides on it, but they aren’t high enough to obstruct my view.
Getting rid of the last vestige of the hospital stay, the security tags.
We needed a place to keep her safe while Zach helped me care for my incision. She is far too small for the bouncy seat and the bathtub (which I used for this purpose when Zane was a baby…without water of course) A few towels in the sink held her securely to keep her safe for a few minutes.
Somebody gifted me some preemie clothes that actually fit her! It was such a nice thing, especially since I am not supposed to be out in public until she gets bigger.
Zane compares foot sizes. (please ignore the dirty toes. lol)
smaller than Zach’s thumb
We tried the baby bathtub first, but she was just too small. The bathroom sink lined with a towel worked a lot better for her bath.
These aren’t the most flattering pictues of me, but I like them anyway.
Grandpa & Grandma Z sent some newborn size clothes. I think it may be a bit before she is able to wear them. (I do love them though)

Ornery little bugger!
Serious Yawn!
They’re both beautiful!
wow she’s tiny but so precious
they are so beautiful…good for you for taking so many pictures!!!
Absolutely gorgeous; thank you so much for sharing the pictures! What a tiny little peanut Zora is! I love the one of her in the bathroom sink. I used to wash Zoe up in there as a newborn too
Now I’m yawning along with Zora! Those are some great photos all around.
I am just loving the pictures! I’m marveling over the ones where she’s compared to the clothes, wow!
So so sweet and precious! Re the hair dye thing … your face looks very smooth and young in the pictures, so I think it must be that distinguished silver in your hair that brought on that (unbelievable!!) comment. You’d probably never hear that again if you did go the coloring route…
Congratulations to you all!
Have been reading your site for a little bit now, sorry for not commenting sooner….but I am just amazed to see the size comparison to Zane’s foot and Zach’s thumb and the newborn clothes….wow!
I <3 the yawn picture. I love how babies seem to yawn with their whole bodies. And yay about the gaining weight! :o)
She is so small! Brings back memories of my own 4 pound baby, I wish I had taken as many pictures as you are though! You have Beautiful children!
