I'm back! And I am finding motherhood to be just my style! I love it! Elianna is such a good little baby; she sleeps very well and brings so much joy to our lives. It's hard to believe she will already be three weeks old tomorrow!
The recovery after her birth took a little longer than I anticipated. I hemorrhaged a little after the birth, so it took my body some time to build that blood back up. I am so grateful for the help I received from my husband, mom, and sisters. They were amazing! I don't know what I would have done without them.
Our church family has been such a blessing as well. The women of the church have been bringing meals over to our house every other day. It's been wonderful and a big help! They also threw a baby shower for Elianna last Tuesday. She received so many adorable outfits! I love getting her dressed each morning. She is already wearing 3-6 months size and some of them are getting too small!
I found time this week to write out her birth story and wanted to share it with you. It is a clear testimony of answered prayer. Read Elianna's Birth Story. Also, here are a few photos from her birth - day, August 13, 2006:
