Aurora’s Babymoon

Aurora and Papa
I‘m working on the birthstory, the announcement, and all that good stuff. But for right this instant… I had to post this photo.

I love the “getting to know you” phase. It’s everything babymooning is about.

More later, I promise!

    EEEK!! I’ve been waiting to hear some news ever since I got your “let’s get this party started” note. She’s beautiful, looks just like your boys did, with a little more momma in her face than they did =)

    Happy Babymooning!!

    Does she have her water legs yet? Smile. Wow, she is breath-taking! “Papa” thinks so too judging by his expression. Enjoy! Take your time and take care of the mama too.

    I have this romantic idea of going to sleep on a boat–that it must be exactly like the closing line in Sandra Boynton’s Going to Bed book: “and they rock and rock and rock to sleep.” Wow, a baby spending her first times in life on a boat–like a water womb–too cool. So keep rocking…
