10 Things I Love About Sasha

Sitting here with the new baby curled up, sleeping on my chest in the middle of the night (as she’s done many times in the past two weeks), I thought I should make a list…

TEN THINGS I LOVE ABOUT OUR NEW BABY

  1. That amazing new baby smell!
  2. How her little chest moves in and out when she breathes
  3. How she sometimes does a few rapid-fire breaths before going back to her normal rhythm
  4. She’s been a really good baby so far with very little fussing or crying (except when hungry or needing a change of course!)
  5. Sitting with her on my chest like now is a perfect time for reading an e-book (one advantage over more unwieldy print books)
  6. She’s given me an excuse to live in pyjama pants and t-shirts for nearly two weeks straight 😉
  7. The way her eyes look, so curious and amazed, at things like her mobile, mommy’s face or even shadows moving on the wall
  8. That, after some initial doubts, her big brother absolutely adores her, cares for her, and watches over her
  9. Thinking about her next few months and years of development.  I still maintain that around age three is my absolute favourites but the lead-up to that period is pretty cool too!
  10. Did I mention she’s pretty cute?
