On February 29th our first child arrived! Just over the line into the leap day, much to my amusement, I had been betting on a leap baby all along. It’s a pretty astounding process and the first almost week of parenthood has been truly wonderful, albeit through a haze of sleeplessness. We’re really excited to start our family together and she is a stunner, and mostly she’s quiet too, bingo.  So for the next couple of weeks I’ll be less than responsive to work emails, instead I’m sitting on our sun chair under the window with my girl draped across my chest, loving it. Ir changing diapers at 3 in the morning. Almost loving that too, almost!

Just after her delivery.

Stunned.

Head over heels. Smitten…
