Lila Hilde was born at home on October 27th at 1:39am. We're all still settling in, but heading into week three, we're finding we can get along just fine without grandma (who graced us with her help for 2 weeks). A few pics until I have the energy to write a real post. Oh, and one the day before she made her appearance. I could barely get out of bed so I was so happy she decided to come out and join the world.
I think I might pop. Her first pic of the day - a bit red and swollen still. I swear she is part German and not all Japanese. Getting to know each other. My favorite from day 3. She loves to sleep like this.
I used to say I should have been a 50s housewife because I like to cook, sew and play with kids. My wish came true when I had my baby girl. I am a full-time stay at home mom who is supported by my wonderful husband, but I’m starting to understand why our mothers and grandmothers burned their bras and flocked to offices. Staying home ain’t no piece of cake.
To all the people who tell you that when you have a child, your life will change dramatically, I say this: As soon as you’re pregnant, your life starts changing. Accept that now, and the rest will be easier.
