A new human

She finally came! After a long, but smooth and easy VBAC (only 15 minutes of pushing after about 20 hours of labor) our little girl joined our family.

Just the Beginning

A new little girl will be joining our family any day now. Every time I think about it I am struck with this crazy reality that the majority of my life will be spent raising kids. That is so overwhelming. Adjusting to being a stay-at-home mom was kind of a big undertaking for me. Now that I finally feel like I've gotten the hang of it (and I've realized how valuable my time with Mason really is), I'm a little nervous about changing the dynamic.

That being said...I can't wait! I mean, I am going nuts with anticipation to meet her. I am so excited about being a mom to a newborn again. Little Mason was a ridiculously good baby and I'm hoping it's a trend that continues. If all my kids are this adorable, I've got it made.
