Contender

Okay, okay, more Istra.

Here she is, being adored by both Grammies, and Mommy. And showing off her moves with her ever-so-stylish mits.

The little baby "mits" were to keep her from scratching herself, with her flailing talons. She'd gouged herself a bit beneath the right eye earlier in the week, besides other scratches. We'd forgotten to clip her growing-more-solid (and sharp) nails before heading north, so these itty-bitty mits, which my mom had happened to pick up from a garage sale, besides keeping her hands warm, actually came in handy (so to speak).

In other news, later this morning will be our last appointment with our midwife.
