Actually, we did get one on the second try… though there’s no way to know if the dark hair would have stuck…

Thanks for the good wishes! <3

Well, it took me four babies to get one with dark hair, and I’d had dark hair all my life! If you get a dark-haired baby on the second try from two parents who were white-blond babies, then the gene pool ain’t all it’s cracked up to be!

You know you’re on my mind all the time, and I’m hoping for it all to go just as you wish. You deserve it!

Mary, please pass along my best wishes to your sister and her family. What a heartrending time for all of them… I remember when E was born, I thought about all those babies in the NICU and how I couldn’t even bear having my baby out of my arms, and how hard it must be to NOT cuddle your newborn all the time… and to be on tenterhooks about all her systems staying alive – wow.

Thanks for your good wishes too, and for the support all along. It really helps.

Di, it’s so good to read that much of your worry is past. I have been and will continue to hold the four of you in the Light as little Angry Birds transitions to this world.

I’m so excited for you, too! Can’t wait to meet the little girl!

Went to visit my new premie niece for the first time today (not sure if you’re aware of all the details…can read about it here: http://www.facebook.com/notes/mary-snow-wyga/update-on-the-status-of-my-sister-new-niece/10151160395192591). Really, really makes you grateful for so much. I look at my own baby and my worries are mainly when she’s finally going to adjust to daycare. My sister is dealing with a day to day concerns about survival. I just feel sooooo blessed that I was able to have my hippie home birth and snuggle with my new baby in my own bed a couple hours later.

That being said, I am so glad you’re taking this time to luxuriate! I still can’t fathom what you’ve been through with Sebastian and you truly deserve every happiness with this baby!!

Don’t you be even one bit sorry. I am just an over zealous worry wart LOL!

And there will be gushing. Lots and lots of it!

Thank you for this, Tania! I love to hear about brothers and sisters who love each other – that makes me think it’s going to be so much fun.

Yeah, I’m hoping for those genes too… Auntie Beth and I are picturing her with dark hair, for some reason…

Thank you so much, for this post I was actually thinking all day today that I should touch base with Sean and make sure everything was going okay. As much as I loved emilys post it did make me wonder if she was posting because something had gone amiss and you could not. I think that you and Sean are so amazing and I’m not sure I would have had the. Courage to
Ale it through another pregnancy if I had been through all that you had with Sebastian. I can hardly hardly wait to hear news of your new babe, see photos and of course hold her! Sending you all love and blessings for a smooth and natural delivery. The next time Ev needs a cuddle give him one from me. Love you all.
