Well, Isabella is due today. I wonder what it would have been like if she had decided not to come early. Would my labour still have been 37 1/2 hours? And would the medical side of things been such a factor? I have had a few reads of the hospital report and it brings me to tears to think about how we could have lost her. But all is well. The first week was a bit to serene, not much crying and heaps of sleep. This week, little Bella has found her voice and has opted for less sleep, for both her and us. She has already put on more then half a pound, which is great for a wee thing like her. I know I will just love watching her grow up, see who she becomes. One of the best things about newborns is when they do adult things, like sneeze or yawn. And they say they don't know what a smile is, but I reckon I 've already seen a few on her face.
Not much crafting, can you imagine why? I have been trying to make her some booties and a hat, but it is taking me longer then I had expected. Thank you everyone for the congratulations on her arrival.

what a sweet photo.
life is so fragile which is such a cliche until you or someone you know has a 'close call'... so glad everything turned out well.

well done little one for gaining some weight:) now let your mama sleep a little bit.
