Sometimes when you inadvertently don’t blog for a month, a month which involves giving birth, it’s hard to think of a way to come back to it. Like, do I have to write the birth story first and open with that? Or some sort of wow-factor post? What if I haven’t even uploaded the DSLR pictures from the hospital onto my computer yet? Shouldn’t I include those in the post?
But then you decide to just sneak away with your laptop for 5 whole minutes to write a few words, grab an instagram picture of your sweet new daughter, post it and call it good. See also: third child.

I have the birth story 2/3rds written and I cross my heart that I will share it, life and schedule permitting.
Spoiler alert: accidental bathtub birth.
I cannot WAIT to kiss those cheeks!! love her already — xoxo
She’s just beautiful! I love her name. Also? ACCIDENTAL BATHTUB BIRTH?! I feel like you may need to email me PRONTO.
I’ve been checking for an update lately (although completely understand you being MIA – *mother of four here*) I’m just so excited for you guys! Love her sweet name and that picture – oh how my {recently retired} uterus hurts at the sight of newborn pictures!
Congratulations!!!
Can’t wait to read her birth story! I had an accidental bathtub birth myself. 1st (and so far only) child born two weeks early with just a couple if hours of labor. We thought we had plenty if time before she would arrive.
Cannot wait for the birth story and more details on the whole third child thing….
I’ve been thinking of you loads and bunches. Three makes a topsy turvy sort of number that is so beautiful and so frantic and so much of so many things. I love you people. Love her name. Take your time…xoxo
Yay! You’re back!! I’m been very interested in your/her birth story ever since I saw on ig that you had a waterbirth. I always thought tubs might make a not relaxing situation *somewhat* more manageable for me so I’m glad my hospital has some. But really, as long as he/she isn’t born in the car. ;)

I’ve been anxiously waiting to hear how things went with the birth! So happy you are doing well!!
She is precious! Congratulations, can’t wait to read her birth story.
Yay! Congrats!!!! Can not WAIT for the birth story!
CONGRATS!!
Can’t wait to hear and see more :)
Best of luck

Wonderful news! :) So glad everyone is doing well!
CONGRATULATIONS! My experience so far as a mother to three: I’ve noticed myself saying “That is so not like me!” in many situations – like losing something, missing a scheduled something, double booking our schedule, etc…. It dawned on me that I have been saying that since my third child was born (1 1/2 years ago!). So now I have a new expression, “This is the new me!” :)
Love this. And your IG feed is one of my favorites! Can’t get enough of little miss Miriam. xo!
i LOVE this. it’s an absolutely perfect way to bring baby into the blogosphere! love her, love you…love this.
She’s so adorable. So tiny.
