3 Weeks and a Day in the Life of.

Audrey is 3 weeks old... incredible.

She's gained about 2 lbs since birth (amazing!) and she LOVESS baths. Must be because she was born into the water...hehe.

Ah. it seems like it was a dream. perfect birth experience... I just still can't believe how blessed I am to have had such a wonderful birth at home with just my wonderful husband and son and midwives to witness.

It's something I'll never ever take for granted and never forget.

My heart is full of gratefulness.

So what is my typical day like right now?
