Saturday

Silent Night plays on the computer being sung by Bing Crosby....Steve is outside adjusting the lights he spent this afternoon finally putting up (hey! We were in Florida! Give us a break!) and it's just so damn peaceful. I was productive today - cleaned all three litter boxes (meaning emptied, scrubbed, changed litter), cleaned both bathrooms (including floor scrubbing), changed the sheets, did several loads of laundry & folded clothes, vacuumed the upstairs and wrote more Christmas cards.

We're off to Steve's Dad's house soon for some homemade stir fry and some putting together of bathroom cabinets and then later hopefully we will be meeting up with Michelle (Hi Michelle!) and Chris for a cocktail or two.

I love being home on Saturdays....

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.

Born 5:32am on Tuesday, April 27th, 2010 7lbs 11.5oz 21 inches long He came before the pitocin which made Mama very happy & he's 100% all natural. It was tough, but I admit I'm proud of myself for doing it! Labor story to come, but first I must eat a cinnamon roll....

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!
