Amara-Bee Asleep

As Kiran would say: "Sleeping...shhh. Shhh. Sleeping. SLEEPING. SLEEPING!!!!!"

One month

On Amara's one-month birthday, she met her Nanny!

March 20th

We tried again on the family self-portrait and did a little better this time.

And Dada caught Mama reading a book to her girls.

March 18th

I'm still taking a lot of pictures, but I never seem to get around to uploading them anymore. These are all from March 18th.

Amara-Bee is a really good sport about all my fancy photography.


On the same day, we all went to Quiet Waters Park. Kiran really, really likes to push Amara's stroller...without any help ("Ah-STOP! Ah-STOP!"). Poor Amara...

We tried a family (self) portrait, but weren't terribly successful...though we did learn that the way to go is to let Kiran wield the remote control.

Here is Kiran looking beautiful by the water...

...And then playing hard at the playground.

Saint Patrick's Day

Green cupcake for breakfast!

Expressive

We think Amara is a very expressive baby. Here are some cute faces, taken just before her 2-week birthday.

First, "The Amara-Bee." This isn't - quite - it, but it's as close as I've been able to capture.

Next, the gassy smile.

And, some bubble blowing.

Sisters.

It's hard to capture just how excited Kiran is to be a big sister, and just how wonderful she is at it. But these maybe come close.

Amara's first bath

Amara had her first bath today! There was some consternation...but no tears.

Headband

One more with the headband from last week...

Portraits from Amara's birth announcement

I took these photos for Amara's birth announcements and had been holding back on posting them online until the announcements were in the mail.

Once they grow...

...it's easy to forget how little they once were.

My little friend, Amara-bee.

My whole world.

My whole world.
