Sophie is perfect!!!

Of course, my previous post was a JOKE. Brittany tried to talk me out of putting it up because she thought it would be rude to Sophie, but if Sophie can't take a joke, she's going to need a lot of therapy later in life. Brittany doesn't know this, but I read the blog entry to Sophie before I posted it, and she thought it was HILARIOUS!!! She totally gets irony.

Little Sophie was born last Sunday, July 22 at 7:52 PM, and weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs. 1 oz., and 21 inches long. Sophie is a HUGE baby!!! People who see her think she is two months old. People who don't see her (e.g., blind folk) think she sounds two months old. Helen Keller would have no idea how old she is, but that is her loss. Water, Helen, water!!! The nice thing about a big baby is that she is totally chillaxed and sleeps for 5 hours at a time, allowing mom and dad time to sleep, watch Lord of the Rings: Return of the King almost 1 1/2 times, win two marathons (allowing time for a very small snack in between), or perform a full frontal labotomy (not including prep time). Also, I won't say what her APGAR scores were exactly, but let's just say that she has already shown a talent for standardized testing... Harvard here we come. In short, she is a superior infant, despite her lack of myelin.

We adore Sophie and can't imagine life without her.
