Miles of smiles
Some of you have already seen the video of Isabel smiling, but these photos that Oswaldo and I took show some great smiles too. Please excuse the graininess - I was experimenting with the ISO setting on my camera and forgot to set it back.

Fingers animated
As promised in my Finger food blog post, here is a video of Isabel discovering her hand. Click on the video to see.
Finger food
At 11 weeks, Isabel has hit a lot of milestones lately. Pictured here is one of her cutest ones. She's found her fingers and thumb, and although she can't always keep them where she wants them (her mouth!), it's been an adventure trying. Check out more pics and stay tuned for an awesome video of some primo finger sucking. Other milestones: today Isabel lifted her chest up with her arms while on her stomach and turned her head from side to side. Then she pooped!

Colicky Baby? Read This Before Calling an Exorcist
If you've been wondering what Isabel (and we) have been going through, check out this NY Times article our doctor recommended we read about colic: "Colicky Baby? Read This Before Calling an Exorcist."
I read Dr. Karp's book, Happiest Baby on the Block, mentioned here, and Oti and I follow it pretty well. Isabel has been doing great lately and didn't have a colickly outburst at all yesterday (OK, briefly at the Dr's office when she peed all over Oti!). We hope the baby Zantac is working (she was diagnosed with reflux :(.
Yesterday she received her first immunization shots (well, she got one in the hospital at birth), and she did great after the initial shock of the needle. I think Oti and I were more in pain than she was! She's now 9 lbs ( 4.082 kilos), and 22 inches (55.88 cm).
On another front - she's starting to get some red hair!

Dancing in the mirror
I've been told that babies love to look at themselves in the mirror. Isabel is no exception. Not only are there some great photos of her checkin' herself out, but add a little music and she just goes hog wild. Don't just take my word for it from the still pictures. Check out the video below.
