		<description>I am so glad that you are able to rest and enjoy your babies.  I love when you post about what&#039;s going on in your family.  I believe that we will be passing through your hometown on Saturday, I will be thinking about you and your family.  :)</description>

		<description>I like the daily journaling.  It saves me the long trip to your house to look in the windows.  Hee-hee.  Enjoy the rest and heal well.  I hope our paths cross again soon.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s great you&#039;re feeling so wonderful!  I believe a good rule of thumb is rest when you start to feel tired.  Remember you just had surgery... and try to let others take care of the housework for a few weeks.  For me, it definitely took a good 6 weeks to really be on my game again.  And on days I felt good and overdid it, I really paid for it!  
Blessings!</description>

		<description>You just take it easy on maternity leave and we are OK with the &quot;journaling&quot; as long as there as photos as sweet as this one. Now I want to cuddle a couple little ones...I wonder if a kitten on my shoulder counts? Nah!!!</description>

		<description>Can&#039;t wait to see you and little Ruby.  Hoping you&#039;ll be able to come down for Bella&#039;s baptism, probably in late August. You will make it, right??</description>

		<description>Thanks Shannon.  I keep reminding myself that, I&#039;m really feeling wonderful.  How long do you think that I should really focus on taking it easy?</description>

		<description>It&#039;s so nice to hear other &#039;older&#039; siblings who enjoyed their mom&#039;s babies. 

I was 11 when my youngest sibling was born.  He had his first child last week (two days after Isabella was born), but I still think of him as the little baby that I helped care for.</description>

		<description>Thank you for posting while you are acclimating to having a newborn in the house again.  You are amazing!  I enjoy seeing the pictures of your beautiful children and reading what is going on in your household, it is encouraging to hear how other families live out everyday life.

Enjoy your walks with the Moby wrap... we love ours!

Blessings,

		<description>Where was the Moby when I was raising children?  It is THE most incredable thing to help a mother of a newborn.  My daughter wears her baby constantly, which allows her to also take care of her three other small ones at the same time.  I take a Moby Wrap to every baby shower...It is a lifesaver.  Bella is beautiful!  So glad all is well in your home.  Thanks for blessing us with a glimpse into it.</description>
