Say hello to...

Those of you who follow me on my social media channels (links at the bottom if you don't!) will know that on Monday our beautiful baby girl finally made her arrival, in my living room, quickly and easily. She waited until 11 days past her due date so that she could share my birthday! And dodged a c-section by less than 24 hours. Talk about leaving it until the last minute! I hope this laid-back nature of hers continues now that she is finally earthside.


I'll write her birth story very soon, I want to get it done while everything is still fresh and clear in my mind. Having a home birth was just amazing, more amazing than I could have ever imagined. Otherwise, the blog may be a little quiet while we get to know the newest member of our family, but keep an eye out on Instagram as I'll be posting on there. 

I have loved reading all of your messages of congratulations; having the support from you all during what has been a rollercoaster of a pregnancy has been so wonderful. Thank you! And lots of you have been asking what her name is, so please say hello to our gorgeous daughter: Essie. Our little star :)
