Not much happening here today

It's a grey rainy day, so there isn't a lot going on. I will probably vacuum the floors after Charlotte goes to sleep, and then sit down and have a cuppa with God. Maybe nap a bit, maybe not. I'm feeling a bit out of sorts today, as I had a bit of trouble falling asleep last night. More related to my Dad and waiting for a phone call than pregnancy. I also woke up early this morning (6:00 AM), and couldn't get back to sleep. So I got up and made tea for us, checked my email, did a Bible study, made Charlotte's breakfast, and just had some quiet time to myself. It was nice to just be alone with my thoughts for a bit. Now I'm back to downstairs to see what my unusually quiet child is exploring.
Love,
Sarah

24 hours later...

Philippa Jane was born this morning at 3:53AM, weighing 5 pounds 12 1/2 ounces. Pictures have been taken, but haven't been uploaded to the computer yet. The birth was perfect, and we're both well - and obviously, home less than 24 hours later. Taking a few days to rest and get to know each other. Photos and birth story to follow in a few days!

Sorry for the long absence...

I’ve been a little busy. My waters broke unexpectedly, starting a chain of events that ended in the birth of our third daughter, M. I was in hospital for a week, and was taken care of by many lovely midwives, nurses, and doctors. We came home on Wednesday, and I’ve been taken care of by my husband and his mum, which has allowed me to ease back into life. Friends have offered help in various ways, such as transporting C to and from preschool, advice, comfort, meals, PRAYER!!!, and just plain old company, which does wonders for this weary soul. My husband has been amazing in so many ways, but especially in his eagerness to help out with more domestic things. The fact that he is willing to do these things takes off that bit of pressure, and means that as and when I’m able to do it, I can – but don’t feel like I HAVE to. So I’m recuperating well, and so far don’t feel too overwhelmed. Just thankful to see my little? family completed, and enjoying each moment. Even the ones filled with poo,...

Things I Love Thursday - Handprint edition

Image
It's a blurry photo, but it's my bathroom mirror covered in handprints. Every day I clean it, and every night, at teeth-brushing time, C climbs up on the vanity, resting her hands on the mirror, insistent that she can do it herself. These handprints represent a growing sense of confidence and independence that warms my heart. Someday, they won't be there, and I'll miss them. So for now, I don't mind so much. In fact, as the title of this post indicates, I love them. What do you love today? To find out what others are loving today, visit The Diaper Diaries . XO, Sarah
