Our new life

Dana here.
Our new life is gradually taking shape.
Our day usually begins very late. I often shift over to our guest room in the middle of the night so i am usually up first. I try to do my morning exercises and eat breakfast before Mariel wakes up. When she does, i take care of Talila while she showers and eats breakfast. I sing her my really deep and creative baby songs ("Baby, baby, baby, you're the cutie baby, squishy-wishy, squiggly-wiggly, sweetie baby girl!")

We both like to have her close to us with skin to skin contact. Talila likes it best when she lies on one of our chests, slightly preferably Mommy Mariel, because of her soft pillow breasts. But i'm not far behind! And she likes to suck on my pinky with great vigor.

When she nurses, she often makes these funny little noises that sound like "Help, help!" And then after 5 minutes, starts crying because she swallowed so much air that she has to burp.

Not much more to say, Talila is just absolutely adorable...
