Those of you following me on instagram may have spotted that we have had our little baby, Evelyn. I am ecstatically happy (and hormonally emotional) in equal measure. We are getting somewhere with claiming back free time but obviously we are tired and making the most of this time with our little one. Of course I am dreading Mr T heading back to work, but we will make it through, there is light at the end of week one :-) not to mention the beautiful little face we made! So strange, I can't believe how much my stomach has deflated, probably in equal measure to how much my boobs have inflated. My body is very confused right now ha ha.
We have decided to hold off for now on sharing baby pictures to the wider blogosphere/ internet. We aren't sure how we feel about sharing our baby with the world, but also it feels strange that they can't consent to their pictures being posted to the world. Of course this is no damnation of those who choose to put pictures up of their own children, and we have put pics on facebook... we will probably even change our mind in the future but for now you will have to make do with pictures of our lovely new nursery.
This is the first room Mr T and I have decorated together and I really enjoyed the process. The triangles are done with masking tape and paint sample pots, and the chest of drawers were painted with Annie Sloan chalk paint.
I'm going to try and keep up with posting, but I have no idea what the next weeks hold so no promises. I'll see you on the other side lovely people.
Congratulations to you both! Evelyn is a lovely name. Don't worry if you don't get a moment to do anything (especially blogging!) it's very hard at the beginning but it definitely gets better. (It's taken me a year to get back to sewing after having my littl'un) Just enjoy getting to know each other x

ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Welcome to the world of no sleep, second guessing yourself at every turn (learn to trust your instincts, rather than the health visitor, and you'll be fine) and the greatest joy and unconditional love you'll ever know!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Such a beautiful name. Have fun getting to know your new little one. And yes, it is the most knackering and confusing time, but I promise, everyone felt exactly how you are feeling, and you will sleep again at some point! Take it easy x
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Debbie and Mr T. Enjoy Evelyn all you can, they don't seem to be babies for very long.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What a beautiful name you've chosen too. I can't even begin to comprehend how you feel, but I'm sure you'll enjoy every minute together!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all of you! Lovely name. You will sleep again!
