Babies are collapsible as well as spring-loaded
Please say hello to my niece Sophia:

Whose papa called me a few hours after the above photo was taken on March 8th, 2008, to leave me the following message:
"hi maha it's dietrich and i just wanted to let you know that our baby sophia was born early this morning at about twenty to one a.m. and she's a beautiful baby girl and she's very happy and she has dark curly hair and long eyelashes and her mother's nose - lucky her. And she's just wonderful and she was 7 pounds and 13 oz and her and Aalya are doing just fine they are sleeping here in front of me right now and they're both just so beautiful (voice cracks) and we wanted to let you know and we can't wait to see you as soon as we get home. Bye bye."
I started crying.
After a C-Section / See-Section / Sea-Section (because, really, all of them could arguably apply), mama was satiated and calmed and bonding with baby Sophia:

As was papa:

These next two photos break my heart because while I was carrying her, this is how she looked

and she was collapsible as is apparent in this photo

Funny this, that she is spring-loaded. When you tap Sophia's little round belly her arms flip out and up, much like Thedude crucified in the image of Jesus. I couldn't stop myself poking and watching the spring load.
I am in love with Sophia and I think it'll be so much fun to grow one of my own, inshallah. (Pics of her and I forethcoming.)

Congratulations to the new parents...what a beautiful child! That first shot of her, she looks like a scrumptious little bundle! You can't help but feel happy when you look at her.... I love the pictures of her parents, though, their expressions are calm and serious as they hold her, they're in that state of wonder (and exhaustion). Much blessings to them and to little Sophia....
She is fucking gorgeous! That smile is beautiful and she looks a little older than just being born. Babies are usually unattractive as soon as they're out, but she's such a pretty little person.
Aalya is stunning and even though I can't see her man, I love that he's holding Sophia up like that :)
"Collapsible"?? LOL!!!! That photo of her and Aalya made my stomach drop. I want "to grow one" too........ -lily
