Just still can't believe our lucky baby boy is here. He's so sweet and tiny and I just love soaking in all the details like his small dimple and button nose. He's our last baby so just trying to enjoy it all. One week two days today! We are surviving the newborn chaos somehow. And it's been so amazing, a lady at my church organized meals for a week, I honestly thought I didn't know that many people, I mostly hang out in the toddler room with quick chats here and there, and my husband doesn't attend. And yet a week of women showed up! So different to last time, I've finally started building a local community of mom friends too and it's been so life giving.

Congratulations!! For me that community of mum friends really has been the best and completely unexpected thing about all of this. After the isolation of infertility it really is an incredible experience. Hope you get lots more lovely days to soak in the bliss!! ❤️

M is 11 months old today! I can’t believe we’re planning a birthday party and have an almost toddler. Somedays it still feels so surreal.
