A change of Direction

It has been requested by numerous friends and family that I post pictures of our new little baby girl, Luna. Steve and I have become more private in the way of social media and posting pictures of ourselves, or loved ones. This is no way to shut anyone out of our lives, we just don't think that everyone needs to be in our business. Besides, what did people do before the internet and facebook? they did it the old fashioned way with film, and letters, and phone calls. So, we'll see how this works out, and how long I can keep up with it. For those of you who don't know the pre-Luna story let me just be brief. One of the only things we wanted in the pregnancy was to be healthy, eat well, and of course, have a home birth. Lucky for us, it went pretty much exactly like planned. So much in fact that my running joke of Luna being born on Halloween stood true. My original due date was Oct 22nd, and I would tell everyone (as a joke) that I was holding her in until Halloween. Well apparently our darling Luna like the idea of coming on one of our favorite holidays, because at 41 weeks and 3 days she showed up, in the morning so we were able to enjoy the whole day with her. Oh, and I did get my home birth. I'm not going to lie. It hurt, and it hurt bad. But in the end it was amazing, and so incredibly worth it. Even to this day, 5 weeks later I still look at her and am blown away. I can't believe Steve and I made this beautiful, perfect baby girl. She is my favorite thing in the world. (Aside from Steve of course.) So without further stalling, here are some pictures I have taken, and I promise to TRY and get this updated frequently. I will try and find time, and I'm sure with a little 'harassment' from our friends and family I'll get better at it. ;) Enjoy.
