It’s a Girl!

A moment to interrupt the food and introduce our new baby girl! She was born at home on a beautiful, sunny day on Tuesday, June 24th. I was one day shy of being two weeks overdue! It was a very fast labor (1.5 hours!) and it was beyond incredible to have her at home. I was accompanied by two midwives, my sister and husband. They were all great support, and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them! We are all so in love with the little sweetheart. The kids are very excited about her and want to spend a lot of time looking at her and asking questions.

I luckily did some pre-blogging, so food posts will be back shortly!
