Sleep IS for the weak, right? RIGHT?

Well, we're on day 6 of pretty much no sleep here. It's awesome. Dahlia either has a cold or is teething or perhaps both. I don't know. I can't tell. She has had a runny nose since Thursday; Thursday & Friday she had a fever for a while; she's crabby as ALL HELL; she doesn't sleep for crap; and now she has a cough. Right now she's content watching Elmo which is about penguins (which is her birthday theme! Maybe she'll connect the two...hahaha). Anyway - I'm exhausted. I just want a solid uninterrupted chunk of sleep.

Oh, I have a cold too which makes it all just awesome!

Hang in there! I'm the sick one around here and can't seem to shake it. I even whined to my mom last night.

That part? Whining to your mom? Never ends.....

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!
