noticing every day


Sofia - your hair is longer, you've grown a few inches, you're thinning out, your pants are too short.  I'm trying to take it all in - the way we get such perfect late afternoon light or how you love when your Papa kisses your hands. Soon, I'll have another little one and even more to notice! More moments, more love, more tiny breaths and the scent of soft baby skin.

We are supposed to be getting some incredibly warm (though, rainy) weather tomorrow and it looks like I'll have gotten my wish after all.

Are you getting some fresh air this week?

    Hmmm... fresh air? I don't think so.. New snow last night. But I'll take it as the snow had gotten patchy and the ground kind of soggy. Now everything looks clean and white now. Spriiiing. I'm thinking of spring.

    I love this picture of Sofia and her papa. So sweet.

the birthing of alba mae

From the beginning, this pregnancy seemed so much the same, yet so distinctly different all at once. I didn't get sick, I wasn't too turned away by my favorite foods, I had occasional heartburn here and there and overall, was able to relax and enjoy the experience.  What was strange was how differently I was carrying - having been told more times than I could count that I had looked as if I had "swallowed a basketball".  I think I was persuaded a few times in my head that maybe this was  different, maybe it really was a baby boy.  Yet still, in my heart I had an overwhelming intuition I would be holding another little girl in my arms, someone so very similar to her sister yet so distinctly different all at once. My little may flower. Saturday night, the air was warm and sticky.  Sofia, Erick and I read stories by a big window fan in her room trying to distract ourselves from the heat in our upstairs apartment. ...
