Fun times in New Jersey

I just got back last night from spending a wonderful 4 days with Jean, Josh, and their brand new 2 week old baby girl, Elizabeth. Several of you have asked for pictures, so here's this beautiful little one that I am already madly in love with!

It's tough to be a baby! There are lots of new things to try to figure out--like working on her eyesight (she can only see about 8 inches in front of her right now), learning to hold up her head, and figuring out who all these people are that are now all around her! It's obviously been a very exhausting day for her!

Come on, Aunt Sarah! More flashes? I think I'm getting a little tired of this! I know I'm cute and all, but still....

She is obviously pondering something very serious in this picture...

Snug as a cute little bug.... Elizabeth and I had a conversation one afternoon while her mommy was taking a nap. Beth agreed to be my flower girl someday when I get married--I figure it'll still be a couple years, and she'll be walking around by then, and her mommy will be in the wedding, so baby may as well too! She agreed with a little burp, which I took as a yes :o)
