Julie Fish

This little fishie outfit is so cute! Lately we've been calling Julie a little fish because sometimes when you are holding her she will try to flop out of your arms without any warning. It happened first to my mom. She was holding her while sitting on the couch and Julie flopped her head and body with amazing strength enough so that she flew out of my mom's arms onto the couch next to her. Dave and I just looked at my mom incredulously, hardly believing a newborn could do that (while thinking she must have slipped out of my mom's grip)

Then, it happened again to Dave 5 min later, and he supported her claim that she seemed to just jump out of his arms (don't worry she's not really flying out of our arms completely, and its always onto the couch when we're not fully gripping her).


Since then, it happens fairly frequently. We have to really hold a tight grip on this girl because she will, without warning, utilize all her tiny newborn muscles, simultaneously, to flop her head and body out of our arms! She sure is a cute little Julie fish though!
