It's a girl!



In the very quick quiet moments, I thought I would log on and announce to the blog world, that Ben and I are the proud parents of Little Miss Annie Jane Brocklesby.

She took her damn time coming out. A good near three days (a birth story will appear here very soon) but when she did finally arrive, it was with such a wonderous glow. Here she was. Little Cotton Socks. Only one small cry and then into the arms of her doting parents for nuzzles.

Since then, life has been a major whirlwind. I cant remember what it was like not to have a small human hanging from my breast all day long. Sometimes she cries. Howls actually. Sometimes she lets me massage her little fingers. But always, she makes me feel very blessed.

Oh congratulations! What a gorgeous girl, and an awesome name. Bunker yourself down for the next several weeks with your lovely new family. Food, sleep and (reasonably) clean clothes are the only things you all need to focus on for a little while. And get plenty of newborn goodness cuddle time in because next thing you know they are turning one on you!
