Long Time No Post

It has been ages since my last post, and it amazes me that it will be three months on Halloween since we welcomed Evelyn into this world! Life has been busy, and it often feels like I don't have time to get things done outside of being a mother to Evelyn and adjusting to parenthood. Being a mom is by far one of the best experiences I've had in my life, despite a steep learning curve at times.

We had a hard time with breastfeeding at first, and we still have to work on it sometimes when Evie's (pronounced Ehvie) latch is funny or my supply takes a dip. I have a wonderful tribe of women (and men, too) who supported me through the initial trials of breastfeeding. Not only to I truly believe that it takes a village to raise a child, but I also have come to believe that it takes a village to survive parenthood! My family, friends, and the other new moms in my life have all been so generous in the support they've given to Mike and me; we are humbled at times by all the love that surrounds us!

I tried to post some pictures of Evie a while back, but had problems with the photostream and ended up deleting the post.

So, I am going to try this again.

I wanted to get this to pay directly in the blog post, but it looks like it will only link to the Picasa website.

Enjoy!
