Basking.

There is nothing sweeter than having a newborn snuggled against your chest all night. Nothing can compare.

I am so in love with our wee Lovelyn. And I am so in love with *all* aspects of my family, not just Lovelyn – having a new baby to hold and cherish sheds a beautiful, glowing light of love all over a family circle. And I’m basking in it.

Yes, the house is busy. Yes, the four kids have all woken up during the night at some point over the past few days (some more than others). Yes, Abby & I are both tired right now, but it is all sooooooo worth it. The girls are so in love with their little sister … even Daisy, the dog, seems slightly enamored with all the happiness floating around this home right now.

And can you blame them?
How could you not be in love with this precious little one?

Yes, we managed to do some photos yesterday -this blog post, however, has taken me almost 24 hours to write. 😉

You win some, you lose some, right?! 🙂

Okay, so it’s also time to congratulate the winner of the fun guessing game we had going on last week to guess the arrival of our baby …  there were so many different guesses and quite a few close ones, but Keri Kitto’s guess was the closest …

Congratulations, Keri! You have won a $40 gift certificate from Heaven Scent Natural Products! Keri, you will love these goodies!

When I got home from the hospital with Lovelyn, this absolutely adorable package arrived just in time for Lovelyn’s first bath … compliments of Heaven Scent Natural Products. What a sweet gift!! I was so blessed!!

Take a peek through their website and pick out what you want, e-mail them and you get to spend that $40 on you! Have fun shopping! For those looking for great natural body products for you or your family, this is another fabulous business to add to the list! I  just used the Little Lambs line on Lovelyn this week and also used the aches and pains rub during the pregnancy when my back was just killing me.

Now, back to the top news of the hour – a poopie diaper is calling my name … 🙂
