Princess Zelda is Here! and some blog format changes

Okay, so it's been a bazillion years since I've posted, but for good reason. I basically felt like a humongous slug and was in constant pain the whole last month of being pregnant pretty much. Okay, so maybe it's not a good reason, but it's a reason.

I'm still going to continue to blog when I can, even though Zelda is now here. It'll just be a little sporadic and shorter posts, since I'll be doing them as she sleeps pretty much.

And I still have blogs that I was working on that haven't made it to the page yet (like the Ultrasound timeline and my belly pictures), of when I was still pregnant, so I'll still be posting those, as wells as our thoughts on being first time parents, so it's a format change of sorts. Hope that's okay with you guys ;)

I also decided to not change the web address, even though it only says pregnancy in it because it was really long when I added "and parenthood" to it. I might change it later, but I'll give you a heads up in a post before I do it.

So this is Zelda Rosalyn Chapple:



Who are you and why are you holding me and not Mom? ;)

Link already protecting Princess Zelda, only a day old




This is her birth announcement that I ordered from Shutterfly, 
                                                         should be getting here this week! 


Just like the announcement says: born February 8th, 2013 at 4:44pm, 8 lbs, 12 oz. 20 inches. Born right on her due date, what a punctual baby, haha. And, some extra trivia, she was born about 9 minutes after I was, in the afternoon. I thought that was interesting when I was looking at my baby book and birth certificate the other day.

She's just gorgeous, right? And we love her and she drives us nuts, too. She's almost a month old as I write this and she's starting to stir, so I better wrap this up, LOL.

Wait until you hear the funny things my husband has been saying on next to no sleep. I mean, me, too, but he made me laugh so hard I cried, but making me cry nowadays isn't too hard to do...and I'll get that as well. Don't worry, though, I'm alright, in case you are worried. And my doctor appointment is this Friday, so it's all good. I'll keep you posted as usual.
