He is happier than he looks. And so am I, for that matter. Also relieved. Thanks to Stanley, there is a 2 min 30 sec video of the birth which I could share with you if you are interested. In the video I look like I'm in a lot of pain but really I am.
I would write 750 blog posts about how awesome he is and how blessed I am to have Stanley, Blueberry and Peachy and how our lives have changed since Peachy was born and our daily ups and downs but I do not have the time. This is frustrating for me.
Blueberry enjoyed this:
and looks forward to more carousels in her future. Stanley enjoyed it as well, and speaking of Stanley, he is doing fine but works too hard. Back to the carousel: There happens to be one within walking distance of our house but it is closed in the winter and last year the Blueb was too little to really experience it, so this summer will be The Summer of Blueberry and the Carousel. I can't wait to tell her she's going to ride it. I'll wait until the day before or maybe even the morning of. Or maybe...hmmm...dare I surprise her by taking her to it on a seemingly routine walk? Perhaps I do dare that.
Blueberry likes to draw and I enjoy this immensely.
I covered one of her bedroom walls with her artwork, and one day she took it all down (what she could reach). That's her prerogative.
Peachy does a lot of this:
He's also a champion nurser. I wish you could see him in action. I could say that Blueberry is also a champion nurser, but really she's moved on in her career and is more of a professional nurser.
Here they are together. In this photo, Blueberry is waiting for me to take a picture so she can look at it, and I haven't asked her to smile yet. Peachy is thinking about taking a nap.
