I promise sometime in the future I'll resume writing about things other than my new baby girl. But for now, I can't get enough of her girliness and how she sleeps with her rumpy in the air. And those socks! And cheeks! And the little sweater and hat I made for her. And oh my.
She sings, she really does. And I sing to her...
Your Song
Yours are the sweetest eyes, I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is, now that you're in the world
How wonderful life is, now that you're in the world.
You have good reason to be smitten! She's beautiful. There's nothing so wonderful as a new baby!

ReplyDeletePlease gush about Ivy! We've been waiting to meet her and learn all about her! Glad your singing :)
ReplyDeleteShe is so beautiful! I'm relieved I'm not the only one who lets her little girl sleep like that.
ReplyDeleteIf the sweater and hat were precious before, they are priceless now.
ReplyDeletesomeone's in l-o-o-o-v-e!!!
ReplyDeletegoodness, that little flowery baby butt is too cute.
I had that feeling not so long ago...well, I'm still in love with my littlest one. And the other two kids are pretty great too.
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater you made her. Adorable!
I like reading about Ivy. It's so wonderful having a new baby girl. Kind of makes me want another one!
ReplyDeleteTonight I was eating celery and Suzi insisted on trying it. I figured she'd hate it, because not many kids like celery, but she loved it! I had to cut her up some tiny little pieces to eat. Maybe soon you and Ivy will be eating celery together :-)
I love this! What a great song for your baby girl, and you can be sure I don't mind.
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jen
She's magnificent! And I love her name.
ReplyDeleteI could read about little Ivy all day long, so keep 'em coming! :)
ReplyDeleteShe looks so cute in that sweater and hat! Oh my! Oh, and I don't think anyone will tire (sp?) of reading about Ivy:)
ReplyDeleteoh, i LOVE when they sleep with their little bums in the air. = )
ReplyDeleteshe's precious.
Gush away! I love the sweater. She looks soooo cute!
ReplyDeleteHer sweater and hat are so her! Absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteShe is such a doll - I'm in love with the cheeks :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet. Gush all you want and enjoy that beautiful girl! Precious!
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me?! I would be so sad if you weren't blogging about her! :) She is so stinking cute and looks great in the outfit you knitted for her,.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy every sweet moment of it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog and CONGRATULATIONS on your new baby girl! She is absolutely, magnificent! I just spent some time browsing through your entries. I loved reading your birth story! Thank you for sharing it.
ReplyDeletePeace and Blessings,
Jennifer
Oh, don't stop writing about her just yet. I think we're all in love with her precious-ness, too!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, please stop. Stop posting those pictures of her perfection and sharing all the joys of a new baby. Stop because they make my ovaries pulse!! ;P She's just too much cuteness.
ReplyDeleteTHANK you for sharing her with the rest of us.
What an inspiring and loving way to love your daughter and to blog about her during this babymoon (and for the rest of her life of course). I also really love reading about how excited the boys are, that is truly precious.
ReplyDeleteI love it and it brings me back to my moments with my children. And of course, it makes me want to go there and experience it all again, although, I won't lie, I would be a little nervous to do all that wonderful birthing at home (if that were an option for me). You are a super woman Steph.
A very belated, yet loving congratulations to you and your family from mine. Sending you huge hugs right now.
She looks just precious in her new hat and sweater!
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
I love hearing about baby girl. She is too precious.
ReplyDeleteI love when babies sleep that way! My daughter always sleeps, butt in air, feet crossed. I could watch her FOREVER!
ReplyDeleteKeep gushing away about little Ivy!! And your new profile photo is just the sweetest!
ReplyDeleteLori

ReplyDeleteUmmmm....and we would mind if you DIDN'T share lots of pictures! We have to live vicariously through you, you know, and be envious that you have all that fresh new baby smell at your house ;)
Oh I love that song...especially when I envision Ewen singing it...
ReplyDeleteHeck, no, I don't mind! We all do it and its your time! The sweater and hat are precious... gotta get into knitting! She is absolutely beautiful. Hope all is well. I am enjoying getting to read/ see her!
ReplyDeleteOH those cheeks indeed! How precious. Gorgeous sweater and hat - wow. We love hearing all about Ivy - keep it up :)
ReplyDeleteOh she looks so sweet in that sweater and hat!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that song. It's one of my favorites. I had the pianist play it at my wedding.
She IS beautiful. And, I love the stuff you made for her.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how LONG she is! I've never heard of a baby with a length like hers... such a sweetie!
Oh! Please please please keep writting about dear Ivy! My Mary is three months already ... oh it goes so fast! But she ahs her own blog already if you would like to take a look:

I absolutely love that song. Doesn't hurt that the yummy Ewan McGregor sings a pretty good rendition of it either. ;)
