Our little girl grows up so fast! Crawling now, rolling over, and started eating solid foods. So fast.

It took a little bit longer than we expected, but we came home last night with our second daughter. Mommy GeezLouies pushed the hardest she’s ever pushed due to the head facing the wrong direction. But with the help of the midwife and birthing assistant, Mommy G. was able to push to the end.
Like she said after the delivery… the whole labor process seems to fade away after the arrival of the baby. Which is true. The eight+ hours just seemed to be forgotten as the surreal moment of seeing the new baby emerge.

This is Eliana showing off how she gets in and out of her playpen. We have been away from the house due to renovations so been living in this temporarily. She has good form… just her dismount and landing needs work.

Weird Dreams during pregnancy
Been having weird dreams lately. Talked with some old friends over some intimate topics… momma geezlouies had vivid dreams as well. It’s something that happened last pregnancy. And so it goes. We found out about two weeks ago that we are expecting number two. It was after three failed pregnancy tests, two months of constant nausea, and a blood test that came out negative.
We finally went to the doctors again where they confirmed we’re expecting… as a result I’ve stayed home to help out momma geezlouies… she’s been feeling under the weather for the past two months, so lots of seltzer water, lots of crackers and lots of craziness.
Baby’s perspective
eliana, however, is enjoying the many newfound pleasures of food, communications, bath time, outdoors, walking, etc… everything is fresh. Looking forward to #2.
