Meghan got her passport photos taken today. We discovered that it's a bit of a challenge to meet the post-9/11 photo requirements when you have a newborn.
Both eyes must be open.
Both ears must be visible.
We're not sure any of these photos will be accepted, but we're hoping that they'll give us a break since she's so little. We felt lucky she was awake at all. Patrick slept through the entire process when we had his done at this age. But those were simpler times.
We'll find out Tuesday morning at our birth report/passport request meeting. If they don't pass muster, I guess we'll be back at the passport photo place next Friday morning.

Oh, my, isn't she cute!!!
Actually, we think she looks kind of goofy in these photos, but you take what you get.
And they did accept the photo with her hand next to her face for the passport this morning. She should have her birth certificate and passport in 4-6 weeks. Then we can apply for her social security card.
It takes a lot more work overseas than in the U.S. where they do it all from the hospital.
