A Great Birth

We are home now, and all is well. Wilson is bravely entering new sibling territory, and adores holding his new baby Jane and asking tons of questions about her every move. I am just reflecting on the past couple of days, and feeling so lucky and blessed to have birthed this baby girl in such a peaceful and gentle way. The cesarean birth was calm and ever so speedy, and we were suddenly graced with this beautiful child. Jane is a champ at nursing, and just like her brother, has already figured out how to Houdini her way out of a swaddle to wiggle those active arms and legs around. On her second night, she was up from 1:30 to 3:30 howling whenever she was not at my breast. It seemed as if all the babies on the floor joined her chorus, and the next day we found out it had been a full moon. These little ones are so deeply connected to the rhythm of the earth.
