Excuse ME!?

Anika -1 Week Old- I put her in the crib all swaddled while I did stuff in her room. This is back when she slept all the time! New babies...they do that! ha. She looked so small in there.

Anika tonight in her crib. UM-WHO IS THIS HUGE CHILD IN MY Baby's crib???

Make it stop. Make the time stop!

And, here is a video of Anika eating with her fork for the first time a couple weeks ago. I didn't start taping her until after the good parts of course, but when she would stab her food, she would reach her arm in the air and scram in delight- and one time when THROWING her arm up in the air, the food went flying...RIGHT at my face! LOL. Of course I missed that part on video!

ME!

For my newer readers: I got married in May, 2007 (I had just turned 24). My husband, Andrew, is from New Zealand, and I have spent lots of time in his country. After living in Boston for 6 years (college and working), my husband convinced me to move to NH (near where I grew up). I moved with a bit of kicking and screaming and miss the City EVERY SINGLE DAY! What you do for Love! :))) We moved to NH right after we got married. Andrew pointed out that he moved from the Other Side of the World for me, and he only asked me to move 2 hours North!) He wins! :) We bought a house and rescued our first dog (Piri, pronounced Purr-E) in May 09, which prompted me to start this blog!! Piri means to stay close and near/clingy in NZ’s native language.

I have yet to get "INTO" the house decorating, but I am TRYING SO Very HARD!

We welcomed our beautiful baby girl, Anika, on March 23rd, 2011. She was 2 full weeks past her due date, and I had the birth I wanted-drug free. It was a beautiful experience (yes, it hurt), but it empowered me. I think Anika’s birth contributed to my confidence as a new mother. From that day, I have stepped into my role as “mom” much easier than I ever imagined I would. She has been such a happy baby and such a joy, which makes me wonder what will happen on #2….

I do like my cocktails, but they have taken a back seat during pregnancy and nursing, however, I do find ways to squeeze them in (Safely). I think that I parent pretty “naturally” which may surprise many people who have known me a long time. Any questions? Please ask!
