After 32 hours of labor, Chris and I finally got to meet our beautiful son by caesarean section. Brennus Edain Markle was born Wednesday, June 23, 2010 at 7:57 am. He weighed 9 lbs. 2 oz. and was 20 ¼ inches long.
We began at home Monday night, when my water broke just before midnight. Eventually, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are now nine days past our due date. I&#8217;ve been to see my mid-wife twice this week and things are progressing, but I have not gone into labor yet. We&#8217;ve had many toning contractions, otherwise known as Braxton Hicks, but nothing strong or progressive. So, we&#8217;ve been spending a lot of time either walking, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend, Chris and I participated in an intensive weekend birthing class at Big Belly Services in Seattle. The class was based on Birthing from Within. In short, Birthing from Within focuses on labor as a process of self-discovery physically, emotionally and mentally. Rather than trying to avoid pain, this class focused a lot on [...]]]></description>

As the weeks dwindle to days, I been thinking about the world we live in and the things I can&#8217;t wait to show to our Sprout. I mean, it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

“It&#8217;s sunny, cool and breezy with a 100% chance of baby showers.” 
Because I’m clever that way and I was really excited about my baby shower. And for good reason, the shower ended up being super fun and cute. I am one lucky lady because thirteen [...]]]></description>
