Solstice Moon

We had a lovely time at the beach last night. We ended up leaving the canoe at home as Steve was very tired from his long day of driving (300+ miles yesterday - yuck) and didn't really feel like sitting anyway. We strolled for a while and found a good spot. We sat there watching the lake, the beautiful sunset and the even more gorgeous rising moon. There was no wind, it was relatively warm, the Deep Woods Off was repelling the nasty mosquitos. The beer was cold (at least it started off that way) and the night was perfect.

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
