Our Christmas package arrived a little early...


Hello blog readers! As you can see... we have a baby! Miss Paloma decided to come a little early (her due date was Dec 12th- our water broke the evening of Nov 30th and she was born on Dec 2nd) but she is the best early Christmas gift EVER!!! It was 29 hours of labor that was totally and completely worth it- a wild ride, but totally worth it. Everyone is very happy, very healthy and just enjoying a big cozy love bubble at home these days. J doesn't have to go back to work until mid January, so the three of us have ample time to snuggle up and bond over these next cozy holiday weeks. We have been laying around skin to skin cuddling most of the time, with a warm fire going and enjoying the Christmas tree. I am feeling happy, in love, and very well taken care of (J is cooking us 3 warm meals a day and is all around just the best most caring husband ever- he is getting plenty of skin to skin time with his girl too) and baby P is happy, calm, and an all around a joy. She very rarely cries (we very rarely put her down!) and she is sleeping and eating like a champ- it took us a few days to work on our latching skills, but now she is a latch pro and is gaining weight and gulping it down when I feed her. She is oh so beautiful, with a full head of dark hair like me and facial features like J. Needless to say, I am hopelessly in love with her, and couldn't be happier that she decided to make her entrance a little early... The blog may continue to be quiet for the next few weeks, as we transition into this new little family of ours, and just soak in all the love... I will update when I can (baby wearing her while blogging is the way to go!) and let you guys know how we are doing, and when we come up for air I will start writing non-baby related blog posts again. I hope you all have a lovely holiday season, and I wish everyone all the happiness and love that we are feeling right now. xo
