We've already written here about how fortunate we are to have not only an incredible support system in the United States, but here in India as well (It's great to have friends post linked here). Our network of friends who study in India is really strong, and we are incredibly lucky that Sarah's research has fortuitously brought her back through India right around the time of Annie's birth. To give Sarah the appropriate credit, this wasn't fortuitous, but something she planned around when she stayed with us in Delhi in February/March. Sarah arrived yesterday, and I think these pictures document that she is having a blast, and is quite smitten with our little potato (or any of the 100 other pet names we refer to her with). They also document that her new camera (Canon Rebel G3I) is absolutely amazing, and I am plotting how I can acquire one...

An amazing innovation, the padala, which looks like a open-faced oil lamp, is a glorified spoon that is used to feed newborns expressed milk here in India. It's great because bottles at this stage are supposed to cause "nipple confusion"; well, we're not confused, the padala is awesome.
Even Annie thinks so!
Happy baby!
This last picture is particularly funny, as Sarah jokingly tries to convince a friend over Skype that this beautiful baby is hers.....
Once again, how great is it to have great friends?
