Penguin Party!

I just finished creating the invitations for Dahlia's first birthday party! Wheeeee! It's a Penguin theme...and it's harder than you'd think to find snowy, happy penguins who are not decked out for the Christmas holidays. Ah well, I think I have it under control. We're just having a small(ish) party. Just friends...with Dahlia, the triplets & Anders that's 5 babies...plenty. I'm thinking of doing "snow-ball" shaped foods - ie meatballs...okay - that's all I've got. I don't think it's appropriate to serve Kix...is it?

I'm looking forward to having this party. I'm so amazed by the changes in Dahlia in just one year! WOW. She's come a long way, baby!

I'll post some photos of the invites (I think they turned out rather cute, if I do say so myself) when I get my camera back in working/uploading order.

With babies/toddlers? Definitely appropriate to serve Kix!!

I agree - go with the Kix! The triplets will gobble them right up.

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!
