5 weeks old yeah! |
Well, I’m back, and there’s a whole new person living in my house now. Her name is Sophia and I love her to pieces even though she’s been known to projectile poop on me. She is almost six weeks old, and while Matt and I are tired, we are pretty much thinking this whole parenting thing is one of the best ideas we’ve had.
I had a
really tough labor and delivery, the subtitle of which could be “expect the
unexpected”. The word I’ve used the most often to describe it is “insane” –
this might be hyperbole (not something I’m a stranger to), but despite my best
efforts at preparation the whole thing really threw me for a loop. I’m going to

skip this post, it is up to you. I will give you the short version now: Sophia
is here and she is healthy and gorgeous. I had a difficult labor with a few
complications but am on the mend, and both Matt and I are crazy in love with
our little girl.
